This theatrical installation takes you to the fictional country of Besulia, where war breaks out. The people’s ancient tradition of dancing the svaboda samoverzhenja to ward off evil no longer seems to be working. Young vlogger Anna grabs her phone and asks the world for help.
Dans Dans Revolutie is based on Lisa Weeda’s novel of the same name, which outlines a world in which war and revolution enter global living rooms directly via videos. In war-threatened Besulia, Anna makes videos from her small village, together with her baba Yara, through which they hope to teach their traditional expulsion dance to the world. And with success, as they gain more and more followers. Until the enemy is at the gates. Through telephones, a sound set and with the help of the creature the Notshnik, you follow the story of Anna and Baba Yara. A magical tale in the heart of contemporary history, about the ambiguity of social media and the wisdom of our ancestors.
