Refuge, 2018
We hit the bank, we will not drown, we will just remain insane. Just strange.
Memory, a handful of coins in a burning lake.
And naked unprotected desire.
Become a rock, not feel.
Anna Ondrejkova, fragment
The performance was inspired by interviews with a community of young people living in London who while on the run found themselves in limit situations. A stage composition balancing on the border between physical theatre and concert features seven exceptional musical and dance performers.
Refuge had world premiere 4 June 2018 for Tanec Praha International Festival in DOX.
«…Minh Hieu Nguyen
gives her body a burst of emotion,
devoted to the resignation and strength
of what Czech scenes rarely experience.»
