CAFé DE LA DaNSE

-contemporary dance cabaret-

CAFÉ DE LA DANSE IS AN EVENT, WHERE DANCE STEPS OUT, IN THE FRAMEWORK OF A PERFORMANCE, FROM THE THEATRE ENVIRONMENT, TO TAKE HOLD IN COMMUNITY AREAS WHERE THE SPECTATORS, THE PUBLIC VISITING COFFEE HOUSES CAN ENCOUNTER DANCE IN A NEW INTIMATE CONTEXT.

AN UNCONVENTIONAL VENUE AND AN INFORMAL EVENT: A SERIES OF ROUTINES, COMPOSED SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS SINGLE OCCASION, EXTREME CHARACTERS, MUSIC AND SPECTACLE.

An extraordinary evening
It’s like we were telling a joke: One dancer, … no two dancers, oops, sorry three, four five, six dancers wander into a Café. They’re not tired, in fact they are leisurely in mind…
And (well, it’s their job) they make a mess. In fact, they make a muddle of everything! Even this joke. Just like choreographer Kata Juhász jumbles up all those archetypical characters, the quasi-compulsory decor elements of any coffee house. Extravagant figures, the creations of eccentric artists at the neighbouring table. An unforgettable mélange: a half hour when anything can happen.

Café de la Danse: where you can’t have even a quiet cup of coffee…
