Sea Lavender — or the Euphoria of Being

In this duet of two women, a 90-year-old Auschwitz-Birkenau survivor teams up with a young dancer.

Éva is a passionate pleasure-seeker, while Emese is bent of saving the world. Éva never says good-bye, while Emese enjoys coming home. What connects them is the common language of dance. One of the last witnesses of the Holocaust, Éva has kept her clothes she wore as a young woman, and they fit Emese to a tee. Emese is tall; Éva likes to believe she has remained so. They look alike...

The Symptoms will perform The Miracles of the Night - a visual, surreal performance - at O.Z.O.R.A. Festival on August 9. The production debuted this April and was inspired by the title poem of Sándor Weöres. The performance will be held at Chambok House from 7 PM.

The Miracles of the Night to be performed again at Trafó from this fall

„Playfulness – probably it is the best word to briefly describe the multi-arts performance of The Symptoms, in which the lighting, the music, the visual arts and dance truly complement and complete each other” Klaudia Antal

The Miracles of the Night which debuted in April will be performed again at Trafó in September, October and November. You can buy tickets for the performances here.
