Silver Blue (2015)

Milan Tomášik & Co

Silver Blue is a second dance performance by Milan Tomášik & Co. It is a continuation of a successful group performance The Hunting Season (2014), where we are facing the research of rhythm, which becomes the consequence of the body tension once again. The dancer’s body are expressive, virtuosic and will bring us to the new, unexpected result. In a world that is increasingly dominated by mistrust, fear and hopelessness, the performers create a critical antithesis of true happiness.

SANJA PETROVSKI, PLESNA SCENA, 02. 02. 2016

“Tomášik has managed to create a complete, compact performance which is being developed so that the situation that emerged from the previous, stacked and harmoniously intertwined with occasional shocking, uncomfortable interruptions. The attention of his work is focused on rhythm, its distortions and then re-establish the order [...]All the elements of the show are organically intertwined and skillfully designed. From each scene of the performance we get the precision, commitment and a great knowledge.”

DALIBORKA PODBOJ, PARADA PLESA, 20. 01. 2016

“Oblivion erases the past, on the stage is framed already a new scenic flow when each individual is presented in their dance monologue, when flying one after the another, when Spela again playfully and humorously shines on stage with her source of movement structures, shining eyes and huge smile, she is her own and is unique, while Milan is structuring running steps, jumps and hops; these are the moments when you shout hurray, finally dance (and we did not miss shouts at the end of the show on 29 December).”
