CALL ALICE - TEMPORARY COLLECTIVE (CZ)

[:en]Created during the pandemic, the performance connects two women, both dancers, both the same age and with remarkable physical similarities. Tereza Ondrová from the Czech Republic and Francesca Foscarini from Italy initially have no idea about each other and their doppelganger, but they come into contact and, in intimate conversations and joint rehearsals via Zoom, a journey of discovery into the connectedness of people emerges, which also touches on themes such as the female psyche and its changes, loneliness and vulnerability. A powerful duet that explores the question: What makes us identify and connect with others and ourselves?
