Day Nine (19 May)

PHOTO GALLERY

Friday offered the virtual reality theatre I AM (VR) by Susanne Kennedy (the first of five festival blocks) or the performance There Is a Sense of Being choreographed by Tereza Lenerová. Artificial worlds and a return to animalism. A visual feast. The night at the Konvikt courtyard belonged to the Decadance DJs. Photographed by Lukáš Horký and Ondřej Hruška.

Day Eight (18 May)

PHOTO GALLERY

Tuesday began with a discussion with Teresa Vittucci and was centred around myth-busting. Divadlo na cucky premiered the docu-drama The Dance of the Dervishes, about an addictionologist convicted of growing medical cannabis. The evening rode the wave of antiquity alluding to the #MeToo phenomenon in the co-production Jocasta. Photography by Lukáš Horký and Ondřej Hruška.

Day Seven (17 May)

PHOTO GALLERY

Wednesday brought a „Marian combo“ or two solos by two distinctive artists, both of which relate to the figure of the Virgin Mary: Teresa Vittucci's HATE ME TENDER: Solo for Future Feminism and Johana Pocková's TO THE MADONNA WITH RUST (second show). A performance bordering on stand-up comedy versus a dance ceremony set in a church. Different approaches to the same substance filled the theme of Otherness to the brim. Photography by Lukáš Horký.

Day Six (16 May)

PHOTO GALLERY

Ondřej Hruška captured the dance ceremony of Johana Pocková's To the Madonna with Rust in the Church of the Virgin Mary of the Snow and the performance of the adaptation of a novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest staged by the drama ensemble of the local Moravské divadlo Olomouc.

Day Five (15 May)

Monday brought two interesting discussions. Silvie Lauder, editor of Respekt magazine, interviewed Miřenka Čechová, while critic Martin Macháček hosted a discussion with the actors and creators from the production Nothing Needs to Be Done Any Longer by Divadlo v Dlouhé. The evening belonged to the ensemble Depresivní děti touží po penězích and their dramatisation of Édouard Louis' novel Who Killed My Father. Photography by Ondřej Hruška.

Day Four (14 May)

PHOTO GALLERY

The rainy Sunday was brightened by the performance Invisible II. / Barbora Kaufmannová and another show of Figuring Age. After its last showing at the Divadlo v Dlouhé, the hypnotic collage Nothing Needs to Be Done Any Longer had the very last performance at the 26 Flora.
