n o m a d

We are always on the road, and paradoxically, the road is our place to stop, to slow down and think. We travel thousands of kilometers and only then we have time for ourselves, to digest and sort out our experiences. What all the traps are caught on our way and when do we start to feel overwhelmed? Maybe we just need to stop for a while so we can keep on moving forward. For a moment, we’re coming back to ourselves. We could call this act an act of homecoming. But what is our home? Is it the place where we physically live or is it more than the place, the state of mind in which we are, the people we are with?

n o m a d is an international dance performance that deals with the phenomenon of current times – being in a „moving society“ – transferring seen as a necessity stemming from constant movement.

How do we experience the „betwixt and between“, when we get out of social categories or personal identities that are neither here nor there? What is it like to come to the new society? Do we need to settle down in the new places to call them „ours“? How does the society accept and welcome us? What kind of initiation do we have to go through?

Performance n o m a d was created thanks to great support and help of Mirka Eliášová, Jaro Viňarský, Marie Kinski, Šimon Peták, Kateřina Uhrové and the whole creative team.

Moreover, we would like to thank for support of:
