Imre Vass sets a dance piece to Enigma's MCMXC a.D., thirty-five years after the album came out. English subtitles, and a royal python on stage.

About the event

Vass asks how connected we still are to our own desires, what relaxes us and what sets us off, and builds what he calls a sensual, safe space in which an audience can look again at intimacy, desire and attachment, and at the resistance and fear that come with them. The choreography does not impose theatrical ideas on the music; the performers let the album lead and surrender to its pulse. The earlier of the two nights belongs to dunaPart, the platform that puts the Hungarian independent scene in front of international programmers. Trafó puts the age guidance at sixteen and up and flags smoke, pitch darkness, nudity and the royal python, which is captive bred and not venomous.
