Compagnie Pál Frenák: InTimE, Trafó Budapest, 10 November
An unmissable classic Frenák-choreography with a new cast. There are five dancers on the stage. At times they motionlessly observe the others’ fight from outside and at a distance, while in other situations they intervene in the web of complicated and subtle human relationships. How can one person become reality for the other? Can the desire for one another remain unfulfilled forever? The reality and penetrability of bodies is an eternal question. Is the other person truly real? Must we fall back from the relationships’ incomprehensible insecurity to our own cruel exclusive reality?

“In one scene from ’InTimE’, five dancers on a stage observe one other and interact in a complicated web of human relationships. There is a woman, who behaves as though her body is not her own – as if she was a child and suddenly became a woman. She stumbles awkwardly in her high heels. (…) People have asked me what I’m interested in, what my pieces are about? Well, it’s really simple: human relationships. (…) My plays are ambiguous? Well of course they are! I’m deaf and I’m not. I speak Hungarian and I don’t. I live here and I live there. I’m high and I’m low. I crash and I fly. What do they want? Why I’m so extreme? What should artist be?” explains Pál Frenák.
