SUMMARY:BLACK DRESS
DESCRIPTION:“If I were to stand here in this dress and tell you I don’t feel like a woman\, would you believe me?”\nBlack Dress is a euphoric solo exploration of nonbinary femme identity told through story\, dance and 12 black dresses from performer Becka McFadden’s own wardrobe. Shot through with humour\, vulnerability and queer joy\, Black Dress invites you on a journey of self-discovery and celebration. From a sunny terrace in Calabria\, to the challenges of gender neutral pronouns in Czech\, to a queer utopian ski lodge that doesn’t actually exist (yet)\, Black Dress will make you laugh\, think and – above all – feel pleasure.\n“The performance is moving\, funny and rebellious. I left Black Dress feeling delighted\, happy and newly inspired.” – Marie Kobrlová\, Taneční aktuality\n“Aesthetically and choreographically\, the performance is well‑balanced and demonstrates both ballet and contemporary elements at a level of technical virtuosity. The spoken text—physically and intellectually demanding—is also delivered with acoustic professionalism. The production avoids the pitfalls of theatricality and the temptation to become a purely dance‑based piece.” – Marie Kobrlová on Black Dress\, 3 October 2022\, Taneční aktuality\nFor the performance BLACK DRESS\, Becka McFadden received the 2023 Thálie Award in the Alternative Theatre category. “The British‑American performer\, according to the jury\, avoids the traps of theatricality\, remaining matter‑of‑fact and raw in movement. Onstage\, they are communicative and relaxed\, accepting\, commenting on and naming the complexity of their being — their body\, family and intellectual background\, mental disposition and physical expression.”\nPREMIERE 2. 5. 2022 (Venušiny dny 2022 festival)\nLENGTH 60 min\nCONCEPT\, STARRING Becka McFadden\nDRAMATURGY\, CHOREOGRAPHY Becka McFadden\, Daniel Somerville\nDIRECTOR ASSISTENT Markéta Pščolková\nVIDEO Mariia Reshetova\nTRANSLATION Eva Ullrichová\nPHOTO Michaela Škvrňáková\, Paul Wade\nTECHNICAL COOPERATION Filip Obermajer\nPRODUCTION Kateřina Kubíková\, Anna Kuřátková\nPRODUCTION (PREMIERES) Michaela Kessler\, Adriána Spišaková\nThe project was supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic.\n2023 Thalia Award in the Alternative Theatre category.\nThe performance will be presented in English with Czech subtitles. \n„Kdybych tu stála v těchto šatech a řekla vám\, že se necítím jako žena\, uvěřili byste mi?“ \n„Po esteticky-taneční stránce je performance vybalancovaná a demonstruje baletní i contemporary prvky na technicky virtuózní úrovni. Akusticky profesionálně provedený je i fyzicky a myšlenkově náročný mluvený projev. Inscenace se vymyká nástrahám teatrálnosti a pokušení býti čistě tanečním vystoupením.“\n– Marie Kobrlová o inscenaci Black Dress\, 3. 10. 2022 \nBlack Dress je euforická sólová inscenace\, která zkoumá fenomén nebinární femme identity prostřednictvím vyprávění\, tance a dvanácti černých šatů z šatníku Becky McFadden. S humorem\, queer radostí i zranitelností vás Black Dress zvou na slavnostní cestu sebepoznání. Od slunné terasy v Kalábrii\, přes problematiku genderově neutrálních zájmen v češtině až po utopickou queer lyžařskou chatu – která ve skutečnosti (zatím) neexistuje – inscenace Black Dress vás rozesměje\, donutí přemýšlet a – především – umožní pocítit rozkoš. \nZa výkon v inscenaci BLACK DRESS obdržel*a Becka McFadden Thálii 2023 v kategorii alternativní divadlo. „Původem britsko-americká performer*ka podle poroty uniká nástrahám teatrálnosti\, je věcná a v pohybu syrová. Při představení je komunikativní\, uvolněná a přijímá\, komentuje a pojmenovává komplexnost své bytosti – těla\, rodinného i intelektuálního zázemí\, mentálního nastavení i fyzického projevu.“ \nPREMIÉRA 2. 5. 2022 v rámci festivalu Venušiny dny 2022\nDÉLKA PŘEDSTAVENÍ 60 min \nKONCEPT\, ÚČINKUJÍ Becka McFadden\nDRAMATURGIE\, CHOREOGRAFIE Becka McFadden\, Daniel Somerville\nASISTENT REŽIE Markéta Pščolková\nVIDEO\, KURÁTORSTVÍ VÝSTAVY Mariia Reshetova\nPŘEKLAD Eva Ullrichová\nFOTO Michaela Škvrňáková\, Paul Wade\nTECHNICKÁ SPOLUPRÁCE Filip Obermajer\nPRODUKCE Kateřina Kubíková\, Anna Kuřátková\nPRODUKCE (PREMIÉRY) Michaela Kessler\, Adriána Spišaková \nProjekt vznikl za podpory Ministerstvo Kultury ČR. \nCena Thálie 2023 v kategorii alternativní divadlo. \nPředstavení bude uvedeno v anglickém jazyce s českými titulky. \n//  \n“If I were to stand here in this dress and tell you I don’t feel like a woman\, would you believe me?” \nBlack Dress is a euphoric solo exploration of nonbinary femme identity told through story\, dance and 12 black dresses from performer Becka McFadden’s own wardrobe.

SUMMARY:THE IMPERFECTIONISTS PRESENT: CROSSROADS
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets on pre-sale here: https://www.smsticket.cz/vstupenky/77802-the-imperfectionists-present-crossroads-klub-letka-praha \nThis month’s show is all about the what ifs of life – the roads not taken\, the choices we almost made and the alternative lives we could be living if things had gone just a little differently. Every choice creates a possibility\, and somewhere out there\, another version of you is living it. This Friday\, we’re bringing some of those parallel lives together for a reunion! \nAnd here’s your chance to create a little multiverse split of your own: one version of you will join us for an evening of improv\, while the other stays home wondering what they missed. We can’t wait to meet the version that shows up! \nCompletely improvised. Entirely unpredictable. Never the same twice. \n200 CZK presale | 250 CZK at the door
