Compagnie Hervé Koubi: What the Day Owes to the Night, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 10 May
- 10 May 2026 7:00 PM
- contemporary
When I was young, before I discovered the Art of Dance and became fully devoted to it, I was fascinated by drawing. Today I keep this same preoccupation in what I call, in my work, my taste for the construction of the gesture and its setting in space.

Salem, We Remain, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 27 April
- 27 Apr 2026 7:00 PM
- contemporary
The Salem witch trials of the 17th century appear in this performance not as historical reconstruction, but as a form of resonance.

Equally important to the story is the frame of a totalitarian regime where the chief of police can do as he pleases: he can capture without warrant, unlawfully torture, imprison without trial, and execute without verdict whomever he ...
