DUST


A collaboration with Khalid Tyabji and Jola Cynkutis commencing 2008.


Research and Development for this new project has begun, with Anna Furse travelling to India to work with Tyabji and Cynkutis,supported by an ArtsAdmin Artists Roaming Bursary.


DUST
is an exploration of love and ageing, cellular death and death inflicted on Nature. Triggered by Beckett's ENDGAME, this new work aims to create an embodied poetic duet stretching Cynkutis/Tyabji's collaboration on STATIONS in new directions. Directed by Furse, the trio will develop this work in collaboration over 18 months in India, Poland and the UK.


We are deliberately allowing ourselves to become porous to the different environments in which our work develops, exploring enduring human experiences, emotions and our own mortality against the backdrop of the rapidly changing worlds we each inhabit - worlds that lurch inexorably along the paths of corporatisation, pollution and indecent waste, worlds in which unseemly extravagance is the bedfellow of unpardonable misery.
Anna Furse and Company

DON JUAN. WHO? Don Juan. Kdo?


Programme text

directed by Anna Furse

with Damjana Černe, Željko Hrs, Mare Mlačnik, Tanya Myers, Matej Recer, Giovanna Rogante, Marie-Gabrielle Rotie

Is about men… is about men and women… is about fear of intimacy… is about seduction… is about violence… is about crisis… is about sex and power… is about love. O moških … o moških in ženskah … o strahu pred bližino … o zapeljevanju … o nasilju … o krizi … o spolnosti in moči … o ljubezni.

Athletes of the Heart and Mladinsko Theatre entwine in this vibrant new work pulsating with electric physicality, shameless wit, drag kings, a thousand feather pillows, bittersweet irony, and a man who cries at too much beauty…
Slovensko mladinsko gledališče in Athletes of the Heart v tej strastni predstavi, nabiti z energijo, prepleteta brezsramno duhovitost, kralje preobleke, tisoč puhastih blazin, grenkosladko ironijo in moškega, ki joče zaradi preveč lepote …

A poetic, complex, simple, intelligently directed performance, bounding in eroticism and desire… Don Juan. Who? is a unique piece.
Marjana Ravnjak TV SLOVENIA

Complex, complicated, and totally simple at the same time…very sincere, full of passion and love...fascinating….More performances of this kind!
Amelia Kraigher VECER, Slovenia

An unusual, provocative performance that both avoids and employs cliches.
Gregor Butala DNEVNIK, Slovenia

The performance is even more provocative when it ventures into existential, erotic, sexual extremes….a kind of melancholic aura..a kind of transcendental dimension..reaches beyond the known, the verified and the expected.
Blaz Lukan DELO, Slovenia

UK performances in 2008/9 are being presented in association with FEEAST
