Emlékeink 65 • Duna Művészegyüttes

In the new On Tiptoe series, dance critic Léna Megyeri and music historian Ádám Bősze invite each other (and, of course, the audience) to play a game. Each one of their presentations is focused on a certain keyword or topic and invokes legendary figures, key masterpieces and intriguing stories of dance and music history.

What do people really want? The answer is difficult, since we are constantly searching for a way out of a perfect world, the way back to Eden after our exile. The Eve & Adam performance addresses this universal question through the language of movement and the artistic representation of two young choreographers.

Ever since God gave Adam a companion, fashioned from his rib, in Paradise, the order of the world has been that no one should live alone. Its modality has taken dozens of shades over the millennia since then: cohabitation, bigamy, polygamy, polyandry, all the way until we come to the most familiar form today.
