writer Ödön von Horváth is interested in an individual described primarily
in his physicality. TRAFIC is interested in the same. The world of von Horváth is just
a starting point for TRAFIC developing of its own imaginative space in the show.
DANCEUROPA opens the
questions of individual and the masses, differences and similarities,
existential insecurity and moulted identity, belonging to set normatives
and escaping to illusion. Moving and repeating, not happening and silence
dramaturgy represent permanent attempt of changes. The title describes an
association complex. DANCEUROPA. In tree quarters tact. Only for those who can follow.
Because body remains the only home and the fate is the only
premiere. And the theatre is just the place of measured appearances. TRAFIC (Transition Fictive Theatre) is an independent production founded in 1998 in Rijeka with intention to explore different contemporary theatre expressions, more than all theatre of movement, mime and physical theatre.
