Reverse

EXPERIMENT AT THE JOINT OF GENRES
THE PREMIERE TOOK PLACE ON FEBRUARY 21, 2018

“REVERSE” is a story about a person’s struggle with external circumstances and with himself. About his lowest and most beautiful manifestations, which are revealed only in an extreme situation, about the throwing between these opposite qualities of his essence. About the desire to change and finding your former self. And, in the end, about the main choice that every person faces at least once in his life.

An international team worked on the performance. Directors Andrey Koltsov and Irina Drozhzhina, together with choreographer Debra Brown (Canada) and lighting designer Joachim Barth (Germany), created a super-saturated dynamic performance that does not fit into the framework of any existing theatrical genre. The actors of "REVERSE" blur the boundaries between dramatic and physical theatre, choreography and acrobatics. However, falling from a height, flying over the audience, balancing on dynamic pylons and other tricks are not just spectacular techniques, but means of storytelling and revealing the inner world of the characters.
