New Stage of the National Theatre and Laterna Magika to Open the Season Outdoors
131ND 56LM 31NS: an outdoor project opening the season 2013/14 of the New Stage will be presented on September 2, 2013. The idea is to apply the principles of Laterna magika in a site-specific show in a public space. The project features dancers of Laterna magika and Ballet of The National Theatre, in one of the choreographies, also the employers of the New Stage of the National Theatre.
The show entitled
131ND 56LM 31NS will be set amidst the urban furniture On a Table and a Chair, which has been reviving the piazzeta of the National Theatre during the whole summer. A 30-meter long table, placed diagonally across the piazzeta, has props cages on both sides, exposing theatre settings from the backstage of the New Stage, which normally remain hidden to spectators.
