Igor/Dawid
Martin Talaga
How can you organise your future so that you can still dance, enjoy and love at the age of 60, 70, 80, 90 or 100? How can you stabilise your exposed, exploited, working body and bring it into harmony with your spirit? In a cross-border theatre work, Slovakian choreographer Martin Talaga, Polish actor and theatre founder Dawid Żakowski and Belarusian performer Igor Shugaleev embark on a journey into their own past. In a series of rituals, ceremonies and dances, they transform their own memories into manifestations of calm and deceleration, stability and rootedness.
