Naked stage, the last day

 

First we watched Sara Šoukal's Art of Process: Artist on Trial,

then we enjoyed The Bohemian Tragedy, which turned out not to be totally tragic, 

and then we all joined in Maja and Juš's farewell party, with two cakes.

4play is a matter of interpretation (I have learned)

The Naked Stage festival (an improv festival) started yesterday, and after staying a few days in bed because of a stomach bug (and cancelling all photo gigs I had) I finally ventured in the rainy world out there. 
 
The first, Matter of Interpretation, was more of a dance improvisation with a bit of a comic side, as one of them was interpreting the movements of the dancers. 

The second performance, 4play, was based more on gags.

One cannot help but think and feel

It is strange to see somebody dancing when you know that his hometown is being rocketed every so often. But I guess this really shows that whatever is happening in the world, no matter how strange or terrible, life goes on (for the lucky ones).

When the Bleeding Stops

 

The Icelandic dancer Lovísa Ósk Gunnarsdóttir realised that dancing helps overcome certain problems women experience with the menopause.  

So she invited women going through menopause to join her in dancing.

In the end, everyone was invited to dance on stage. It was a good night.

Voice Movers

 

When I photograph choirs (which is not that often to be honest) I always want to get a good picture of the entire choir, but it is almost impossible. So instead I try to capture a few singers in the mood.
