Enter the digital dystopia of TREVOGA! After touring the world with their work, the young Netherlands-based choreographic collective will perform for the first time in Hungary.

An artificially generated TV show, an eerie dream after a late-night doom scroll, or perhaps something even more uncanny, 11 3 8 7 [Rebody] is a performance inspired by the lavish fantasies we fabricate online and their conflicting relation with the increasingly hostile reality around us. It fills our eyes with polished imagery, but the packaging is hollow. Behind the glossy appearance of its fictional avatars lurks an unsettling atmosphere that is almost impossible to grasp. Akin to wandering alone through a deserted shopping mall, it haunts its viewers with the chills of a cold, manufactured absence.

This edition invites a subtle re-embodiment of the work, where emerging choreographer Yooha Cheon brings a fresh, sharp view on presence amid synthetic silence.

TREVOGA is an emerging Amsterdam-based dance collective characterised by bold, undisciplined artistic experimentation and a soft spot for dystopian imagination. With 11 3 8 7 they earned the Best of Fringe Amsterdam award, a spot in Aerowaves Twenty24, and a Top 5 listing in NRC’s Best Dance of the Dutch Season 2023/2024.

Neda Ruzheva (TREVOGA) on 11 3 8 7:
“As dancers we felt like we are flesh for sale, labour units, numbers of an algorithm; we felt like our bodies were literally programmed. We found a way to address this feeling in the performance as well. (...) 11 3 8 7 deals with all these topics that we never found out how to come to terms with. The algorithmic function of everything around us, the commodification of our bodies, the distorted images of the world and ourselves, the high expectations that come with it. How hard it is for us to cope with it. All the violence that kind of slips through the cracks of these very pretty representations.”

“For Trevoga, the white capitalist body is not a temple – it is an abandoned shopping centre filled with consumerist relics, synthetic chemicals, and sexually suggestive images.” - Backstage with Neda Ruzheva (TREVOGA)
