GUIDE

What if one day we could look back at our life, would there be things we might want to do differently? — Would we be able to avoid what we now see as mistakes? — If we could ask for advice, would we have any such questions?

An audiovisual piece in which back then and now become one

The artists, accompanied by live music by Filip Míšek, take us into a surreal, magical world without borders. On the contrary, light walls and mental barriers are torn down and shifted, all in incredible purity and precision, due not only to the technology but also to the performance of both dancers, which is accurate and yet human and natural.

REVIEWS

“I thought it was very interesting, I have not seen anything like that before, they were playing with my eyes, which I always enjoy, and it was very inventive. I personally like to see an old body on the stage and I think this body has a lot of embodied knowledge that is accessible to us almost immediately just by standing there.”
— Bush Hartshorn

“Do you know the feeling when you look out of an airplane and you see the massive clouds so impassable that you cannot imagine falling through them? That feeling is so strong in the choreography of Vera Ondrašikova that the walls made up of light and smoke don’t let the performers meet.”
— Anna Dohy, Springback Review

“Unlike any other piece, Guide is extremely intelligent, loaded with dynamics and action in its work with optical light illusion. A mystical message concocted of sci-fi technology and hermetic references.”
— Nina Vangeli (The jury’s voice, Czech Dance Platform)
