Disturbance
Premiere
March 20, 2021
NoD, Prague
Care for some Bach with a rook? Don't take my dignity away! Ourselves? The liberating loss of self-control, who takes our place? Us? One gold chair and a lot of room for a lady or a twiggy doll. Meet your stereotypes, pull yourself out of context, fill the empty space... That's why it doesn't exist.
Disturbance (Narušení) is a two-woman show inspired by elements of absurd drama which combines contemporary circus and physical theater and features aerial acrobatics on a suspended gold chair.

"The metal structure allowed for innovative aerial variations that created "dreamlike" moments of aesthetic bliss in the light tinged haze. The distortion seemed to respectfully strum the absurdity with a string of naivety and playfulness that is and has been inherent to TeTam since its creative beginnings ten years ago."
"Two women, "metaphors of Venus": a ditz and a raven, a jester and a queen, a rock and a fairy... The open sketch seems to rely on the associative current of each of the viewers."
"During the Disturbance, I got the impression that I was watching all the action through a keyhole, from which someone took out a key for a moment to wound up the "dolls"."
