"In Silent Cinema"
The theater can be a beautiful journey to places and times that reside in our imagination and occasionally want to break free. This time we move to the era of Silent Cinema. Film images of great creators like Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, and Georges Méliès have been a strong inspiration for creating a theatrical performance. However, the feelings shown through a distinctive form and the poetry of thoughts and actions proved to be more important.
Slapstick, body comedy, and situational humor, unconventional contemporary music, and life-inspired stories that determine the timelessness of such expression. Humor beyond words, body poetry, event comedy, illusion - the true magic of theater.
It turns out that a return to the world of dreams is possible.
