Zsuzsa Rózsavölgyi: Meduse, Trafó Budapest, 7 February
- 7 Feb 2025 8:00 PM
- contemporary
The choreography explores the nature of movement and the dynamics of natural phenomena in an ever-changing environment. It is both a proposition for change and stability, examining how these principles manifest in ecological systems Through finely coordinated group movement, a state of awareness arises where the ego fades away.
The ego-self transforms into an eco-self, interwoven with the ...
Jenna Jalonen: Ring, Trafó Budapest, 10 January
- 10 Jan 2025 8:00 PM
- contemporary
What is the origin of ‘dance’? Where does ‘choreography’ come from? What is the significance of an old formation in a contemporary context?
Ritual, ceremony, trans, sacrecy, infinity, torus...
Circle, chain, spiral, whirl, cycle, vortex... Bodnár, Csángó, Csárdás, Karikázó… Carole, Branle, Farandole, Zikr, Reigen, Hora, Kolo, Kalamatinos, Syrtos, Serdana… Nanissáanah, An Dro, Dabke, Lawweeh, ...
No One's Land, Trafó House Budapest, 5 November
- 5 Nov 2024 8:00 PM
- contemporary
A place where there is nothing, but anything is possible. The AHA Collective investigates how this seemingly desolate no-man's land can serve as soil for new possibilities. Is everything we see just waiting to be decoded, identified, and categorized? Can the existence of anything be justified without the inherent possibility of judgment? The six dancers are curious about all of this and put ...
OneTwoMany Collective: 'InThisTogether', Trafó Budapest, 24 May
- 24 May 2024 8:00 PM
- contemporary
Contemporary circus - This is an experiment. We have some intentions, but just like you we don’t exactly know what is going to happen. “InThisTogether” is a participatory circus show that relies on the audience in order to happen at all. If you choose to be involved, you will experience the trust, focus and joy that is so intrinsic to circus. And yes, you will share some of the risk and ...
FrenÁk Ensemble: 'The Hidden Men', Trafó Budapest, 8 December
- 8 Dec 2023 8:00 PM
- contemporary
The Hidden Men holds up a special mirror in front of us, in which we can see the „Macho”, the „Narcissus” and also the „Hercules”, and through these we can closely examine the archetypes of man. Frenák alternately calls up male chauvinist violence, stupid pretentiousness and the balance of power that structures our interactions with others.
FrenÁk’s contemporary choreography shows ...

Andrea Salustri: Materia, Trafó Budapest, 8 December
- 8 Dec 2022 8:00 PM
- contemporary
MATERIA aims to discover, explore and witness the aliveness of one material: polystyrene.
Object manipulation is taken from a different perspective: giving space to the objects themselves rather than the manipulator, and playing with the balance between these two subjects.
The piece tries not to force a narrative but rather let the audience project their own narrative on the material on ...
