DetailEAT & SHARE with iCoDaCo
We invite you to join a shared lunch with the dancers from the iCoDaCo project. These informal gatherings offer space to meet, exchange, inspire, and listen – and also to talk about what’s currently resonating on the dance scene, what’s puzzling us, and what keeps us awake at night. Sometimes the format will lean more towards a workshop, other times towards open conversation – the shape remains flexible. These lunches are a space for dialogue, support, insight, and questions – both big and small. Your references, experiences, perspectives – or simply your presence – are valuable tools in building a stronger and more inclusive dance community.
DetailAzolla Collective: THE DREAM SQUARE
The Dream Square is a project by the Azolla Collective, where together with you we explore public space and dream about its future.
With the support of Studio ALTA, Kreativní Praha, the Prague 8 City District, local organizations, and active neighbors, we create participatory events, installations, and performances made specifically for the Square of Elsnic.
We invite you to movement workshops where we will dance, dream together, map the space, and share through movement and visual art.
We involve the residents of Libeň as well as pupils from local primary schools, whose ideas, experiences, and presence help shape the entire project.

DetailTilman Aumüller & Christopher Krause: Schools of Transmutation = a speculative fiction game
Schools of Transmutation is a speculative fiction game about sustainable futures.
What if animals were paid for their work? What if artificial intelligence belonged to the users? And what would fashion look like if nothing were thrown away?
This participatory game creates imaginative scenarios in which the world is transformed through fantasy, unexpected connections, and the diverse perspectives of the participants.
Boys* in Sync: Kleist & Krise
Boys in Sync* bring a performative walk to Prague, inspired by Heinrich von Kleist’s The Earthquake in Chile and the architecture of the 1950s. How crises shape our lives and what does it take to build a community?

DetailSPOLK: FROM SCRATCH
Presented as part of the 4+4 Days in Motion festival at Cultural Station Galaxie.
Somewhere, we made a mistake. Maybe it wasn’t even our fault, but we can’t ignore it anymore or pretend that everything is perfect. But what really happened? And why are we here? We’re replaying everything from scratch. A dance performance that unfolds as a stream of subtly escalating images. Two dancers meet in a theatrical and existential makeshift setting. A functioning world falls apart in their hands.
English friendly – non-verbal.
Ufftenživot & Studio ALTA: WHOMAN
Presented as part of the 4+4 Days in Motion festival at Cultural Station Galaxie and celebrating 10 years of the Ufftenživot collective.
We examine the stereotypes, norms and expectations that we have learned, accepted from others, created, automated, and now trying to peel off. We search for possible ways of staging this process of ‚peeling off‘. We search for means of communicating without imposing our views, while expressing our feelings. We live in a world we have created ourselves. We are responsible for it. On the stage, we conceive a world where all wo/men can be seen as they are, with their emotions.
English friendly.
Ufftenživot: Wonderland / *PF (Parent Friendly)
Presented as part of the 4+4 Days in Motion festival at Cultural Station Galaxie and celebrating 10 years of the Ufftenživot collective.
What did I really want? What do I need? Can it be traced or figured out? How much effort do we have to make in today’s fast-paced life to consciously stop for a moment and devote ourselves to ________ (fill in as you wish)? Wonderland as a setting, a state of mind. Sára Arnstein as the main star of her smartphone — and of Ufftenživot’s performance about how our phones have become our best (non)friends. Don’t scroll, come!
English friendly. For the performance we offer free babysitting (childcare) as part of our accessibility program - you need to register.
Martina Hajdyla, Eliška Brtnická, Jana Stárková: TREMULA
Presented as part of the 4+4 Days in Motion festival at Cultural Station Galaxie.
You need to rest. Stay in place for a while. Where just a moment ago the fire was burning, now it is still. The bodies are exhausted, time has slowed. Rest at last. But how long can it be sustained?PAn intersection of artistic approaches by aerialist Eliška Brtnická, dancer Martina Hajdyla, and director Jana Stárková, expressed in sheer physicality.
English friendly – non-verbal.
