World Avant-Premiere of Ultima Vez in Prague

Advertisement
World famous dance company Ultima Vez will present the pre-premiere of its new performance Talk to the Demon in Prague on April 4th to 6th. In this project Flemish choreographer Wim Vandekeybus examines how social networks and media affect the emotions and thoughts of children, how children use these media, and how they are in turn used and even abused by it. The performance will feature two ten-year-old children, six dancers, and actor Jerry Killick (a member of renowned British theatre company Forced Entertainment). The world pre-premiere of Talk to the Demon will take place as part of the celebrations of the 20th season of the Archa Theatre on April 4. Ultima Vez has regularly appeared at Archa since 1995. This time the Archa Theatre is co-producing the new performance together with theRoyal Flemish Theatre.
Wim Vandekeybus: ‘Witches, magicians, demons. You find them in every culture, but they always signify something different. In some places the magical or demonic is simply evil, while elsewhere it is not viewed so one-sidedly. I associate the demonic just as much with something very liberating or with being obsessed with something, as the ultimate fascination.’ More at: http://www.divadloarcha.cz/en/
