Eternal Dance: Scenes from a Marriage, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 23 January
- 23 Jan 2026 7:00 PM
- contemporary
Ever since God gave Adam a companion, fashioned from his rib, in Paradise, the order of the world has been that no one should live alone. Its modality has taken dozens of shades over the millennia since then: cohabitation, bigamy, polygamy, polyandry, all the way until we come to the most familiar form today.
However, no matter how close you get to someone, it is not always easy to be with ...
Recirquel: Paradisum, Festival Theatre Budapest, 13 - 16 January
- 13 Jan 2026 7:00 PM

We get an insight into the ritual-filled life of barbarian settlement trying to seek out a living on the ruins of a civilisation and fighting for survival, fighting with their fears, trying to live through all things fate brings on to them.
Fate which sometimes brings good things, love, joy, and sometimes brings sadness or death. A girl whose life was meant to be short, can feel truly happy ...
