4 men. 4 ropes to the sky. A legendary piece.
FrenÁk’s perpetual piece – which is the mixture of contemporary dance and acrobatic elements – discusses the essence of the social aspect of being man, and analyses it with ruthless honesty. The fragile balance between the characters reveals lust for power, weakness, narcissism, competitiveness, and humiliation.
He probes male sexuality through its different aspects: its origins, as well as its subconscious sources. With his aerial choreography, he opens the door of the cage and lets the beasts of our subconscious roam free. Using dark humour, sharp irony and aggression as tools, Boys illustrates the emotional flatness and the cliché that rule the relationships of the modern man.
FrenÁk has been working as dancer for 45 and as a choreographer for 35 years, leading his ensemble for more than 20 years in Hungary. Comprising a variety of classical and modern techniques the company’s profile stands for a unique style and dance language. Some of their most important characteristics are the use of mimicry, sign language and body movements that reflect on various genres of contemporary circus, fashion, theatre and music.
