Hodworks: Solos – variation

Hodworks: Solos (variation)   +16

- a selection of solo appearances –

A series of solos by 3 performers playing in a space surrounded by the audience. Each solo is a compact element but as one follows the other, they give a chain reaction of emotions and sensations. Each is a proposition to connect, a version of approach, a variation of genre. The audience is also responsible of what these solos reveal. Likewise, once we give a chance to know someone, by spending time with them, the opportunity for creating bonds is increased. Various materials, an eagerness of communication, household tragedies, transcendent roars, metamorphosing creatures.

Hodworks was founded by choreographer Adrienn Hód in 2007. Besides permanent members, the Budapest-based international company works with artists from different fields. They regroup proactive, forward-thinking creators who focus on the human body, liberated from mediators, limits, props. The new and progressive pieces are result of a long, creative body research based on improvisation, which appears in a strictly structured form on stage. Choreographies own a delicately developed, high-quality language balancing between the exact and the very abstract representation; stimulate the audience’s spirit and senses and invite us doubting in the known and opening up towards the unknown. They do not compromise; they do not want to please.
