Kulhavý tango - Cool, Heavy Tango
Premiere.
Co-production of the Archa Theatre and theatrical group Dogtroep from Amsterdam. The famous Dutch theatrical group has proven for the past twenty years that theatre performance can rise practically everywhere: from snowed plains (during the Olympic Games in Albertville), to the parched Spanish South (during Expo '92 in Sevilla). For a stage they had factories, docks even churches - none of their projects, however, wrere created in the theatre. The versatility of the Archa Theatre and its technical gave them the assumption that that they have decided to break free from their principles and create a performance in a theatre space for the first time in their history.
