About performance:

'I fell asleep again. And there were strange pathways which, as I heard, lead to Mnisek, and a power of people of different kinds were running on the path across from me. And so H. and I joined them and on the path always three steps away from me I saw men standing there in strange attire holding long rods in their hands, and I heard certain words, like some kind of password, between one and the other being aw-' Karel Jaromir Erben
In this performance Handa Gote continues to explore European imaginative traditions and sources of inspiration closer to home. The group draws from a text by Czech poet Karel Jaromír Erben, in which he described his dreams, as well as other Czech Romantic texts, though none of these are actually spoken in the performance.
The staging approach is influenced to some extent by Noh traditional Japanese theatre. Not by its aesthetic, but by its philosophy and procedures for dealing with the situation onstage.
