The Romanian Cultural Institute in Prague supports the participation of Romanian artist Mădălina Dan in the second edition of the BAZAAR international festival of independent performance. The events will take place on March 18-20, 2016, at the Alfred ve dvoře Theatre, Studio ALTA and the PONEC - the Dance Venue.
The culmination of the festival will be the Saturday Bazaar, showcasing works-in-progress by artists from the Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Hungary, Russia, and Slovakia. During the evening block of Saturday Bazaar, on March 19, at 7 p.m., in Studio ALTA, Polish-Romanian duo Agata Siniarska and Madalina Dan will perform an excerpt from their future work Mothers of Steel - an investigation into the phenomenology of tears that touches on themes like memory, history, death, happiness, fragility, innocence, and strength.
The festival will conclude with a pair of performances on Sunday, March 20: End Dream by Romanian ensemble Unsorcery, focusing on ways in which we can actively alter reality.
The BAZAAR Festival is one of the few "development festivals", supporting the development of new works in Central and Eastern Europe, and was created in 2015 as part of the Identity.Move! project - an international platform supporting theoretical and artistic research into identity through contemporary dance and the related performing arts. This year's festival program revisits themes of identity. For more information, please visit www.alfredvedvore.cz/en/bazaar.
