Theart
OUT /Adriatik presents - the creators of this extraordinary performance allowed themselves to be inspired by the stories of H.P. Lovecraft, bloody novels and classic horror films.

Kristýna
Lhotáková (Czech Republic): - the new work researches the state of „being alone“ and the search for inner contrasts of subjectivity. The performance tries to answer the questions: „how do individuals think, feel, sense, see and hear differently?“, „how independent or reliant are they on external influences?“ and „where are the limitations of human perception?“. Everything has two sides: are these symptoms of schizophrenia or is this merely a fundamental human dilemma?

Veronika Švábová (Czech Republic): Noise - through the assistance of sound and optic sensors, the dancer is directly united with the space. Movement develops changes in sound and light, thus creating a performance about three autonomous elements: dance, sound and light.

Iris
Reyes (Venezuela/ Netherlands): - the acrobatic and dance solo captures the sensations of danger and panic that we pass through from one moment of extreme to the next.

In 2001, she received the Silver Dance Award for Best Female Dancer in The Netherlands.

Jo
Strømgren Kompani (Norway): - using a nonsensical language, three nurses attempt to communicate with each other in the forgotten place where they find themselves, and slowly retreat into the real world.

Cakes
and Puppets (Czech Republic): - the West. Friendship. Courage. Bravery.
Good and evil. Love and death. Then and now. Keep your head
