O predstavi
Ustvarjanje težav in reševanje neobstoječih težav je lahko posebna sposobnost. Strah je osnovni mehanizem preživetja. Mehanizem, ki se sproži, ko je oseba v nevarnosti. Strah je sposobnost prepoznavanja nevarnosti in vodi do odločitve: beg ali boj. To čustvo in odziv sta nam prirojena. S strahom smo rojeni. Rojeni z njim, da nas zaščiti pred resnično nevarnostjo. Težava nastane, ko se ljudje s strahom odzovejo ne le na dejansko nevarnost, ampak tudi na pričakovane, namišljene nevarnosti. Ubogo telo, misli, da beži pred levom, pa beži pred seboj. Zanimivo je, da lahko dosežemo visoke ravni adrenalina, ne da bi se morali soočiti z resnično nevarnostjo.
Trenutni nepredvidljivi časi predstavljajo različne grožnje in strahove. Predstava raziskuje strah kot koncept, uokvirjen v gibanje, ples in elemente gledališča. Šaljiv pristop do enega najtemnejših čustev. Predstava je samorefleksivna in nagovarja vse tiste, ki se česa bojijo, se tega zavedajo in se jim morda celo zdi nepotrebno, da se bojijo, pa vendar se. Občutek strahu, resničen strah in ustvarjanje strahu.
About the performance
Creating problems and solutions to non-existent problems can be a special ability. Fear is a basic survival mechanism. A mechanism that is triggered when a person is in danger. Fear is the ability to recognize danger and leads to the decision: to escape or to face danger. This emotion and response are innate in us. We are born with fear. Born with it to protect us from real danger. The real problem arises when people react with fear not only to the actual danger, but also to expected, imaginary dangers. Poor body, it thinks it’s running away from the lion, but it’s just running away from itself. Interestingly, we are able to bring ourselves to high levels of adrenaline without having to face the real danger.
Unpredictable times, especially the ones we live in now, display different threats and fears. The performance explores fear as a concept framed in movement, dance, and elements of theatre. A humorous approach to one of the darkest emotions. The performance is self-reflective and addresses all those who are afraid of something, are aware of it, and may even find it unnecessary to be afraid, and yet they are. Feeling fear, really being afraid, and creating fear.
