"A Melinda Virág and Central Europe Dance Theatre Production
Premiere: 'Aldous Huxley calculated that the circle of the silence will
annually be tightened by thirteen and half kilometres. The time, when
the silence completely disappears from the earth, is not far. The circle
of the intimacy will be smaller and smaller.
... The frame of reference in our life is the pillar and the bed. The
pillar is the way up even stiffly up, the wakefulness and the
vigilance, the mind and the day. Thinking means to be vertical. Lying on
the bed means to be horizontal, to sleep and have rest in the equation.
Pillar is like the individual.
...Nothing can be better
understood than the effort with people the bed created and built cover
over it because the house is the cover of the bed. Now the houses and
the flats are mostly places without points to sit down because it isn't
even a quiet place in them. There is fashion, bragging, hygiene but it
isn't intimacy.
The bed disappeared, the resting place stayed
only, but no one can neither celebrate the wedding, bear nor die there.
The sleeping left the biological act over. We live without intimacy, the
flat is hostel and it is sentimentality to be at home. We are cabin
characters always on the way but nobody know where he goes and it isn't
journey any more but traffic only." (Béla Hamvas)
The creators
analyse personal questions whether we dare to be in silence or we escape
from it to have meetings, onto the facebook, into the music or the
washing-up. Can we listen to the voices coming to us, the cry, the laugh
or the craziness in the silence? Where can we find the silence of our
own?
