Szeged Contemporary Dance Company: Moderato Cantabile / Don Juan

One evening – two dance productions by the Szeged Contemporary Dance Company. In the first half of the programme, the protagonists try to snatch for themselves and each other a few “pure” moments from the monotony of their daily lives. Their movements carry undercurrents of desire, repression, and life trapped within the confines of society. Of course, all this is conveyed in very restrained, melancholy fashion in keeping with the theme of exploring the border between passion and suffering. Following the interval, the spotlight turns to one of European culture’s most fascinating figures. Don Juan is a man of extremes. He is sentimental, but his heart can turn to stone from one moment to the next. He is tender until he obtains the object of his desire, and at other times he is merciless. He is vain and narcissistic, yet persistent, heroic and self-assured. The Szeged Contemporary Dance Company reimagines this character of a thousand faces who has been interpreted a thousand times over.
