KAR: FEKETE SERETLEK (SLO/CZ)
The Theatre of Objects & a concert based on Anna Karenina.
* Due to the limited capacity of the Theatron, you must purchase a ticket to secure your seat for the performance.
During the funeral dinner, as glasses clink and a mourning band quietly accompanies, snippets of a past person's life begin to unfold instead of a quiet farewell. Through the casual movements of the waiter, through the subtle combinations of music, words and objects, it comes to life, as does the imagination of the guests. Intoxicated by the wine, they begin to inhabit the past, until eventually they themselves become characters in the story of Anna Karenina.
The Cabaret of Russian Realism builds and sets the drama with lively, animalistic, original music based on Russian traditions. Harmonica, percussion, violin, cello, bass and five voices perform a metamorphosis of music and theatre, cabaret and intimate scenes of moving objects. The rhythm rises to the last moment, in which (in front of death's door) the spectator and the actor suddenly find themselves at the beginning again - at the table with a glass of wine in hand.
Directing: Matija Solce
Scenography: Marianna Stránská
Music: Matija Solce
Starring: Pavol Smolárik, Anna Bubníková, Jiří N. Jelínek, Ivo Sedláček, Matija Solce, Jan Meduna
