In Hungarian with English subtitles
based on ‘The Screens’ by Jean Genet
Spit in your hand, it will give you power.
Stand on your feet and raise your face.
It will make you strong.
Steal wings, and you can cross the sea.
Your adversity will be with you.
It sticks to you like crabs to man's balls ore roundness to oranges.
You carry it like your shadow.
When nobody needs you anymore,
your adversity will turn to you and your footprints,
but not to help you get somewhere
but to let you live happily where you are.
The Trojka Theatre Company was formed in June 2013 by Attila Soós (Hungary). It seeks to establish a form of independent existence, and is concerned with every single aspect of the creative process, including the combination of adaptation, movement and gesture language, as well as music and visuality.
Trojka focuses on literary works whose theatrical adaptation is not obvious at first sight, attempting to metamorphosis novels and short stories into performances through the personal interpretation of the group. They create movement, which creates images, which turn into scenes, which builds a story.
Every visual element in turn generates a musical response. The visual world of Trojka’s productions is characterised by minimalism, which has the added benefit of making performances easy to adapt within different theatrical spaces.
