Widely considered a trendsetting master, Hans van Manen is one of those choreographers who managed to increase the popular appeal of modern ballet by fusing classical ballet with modern dance. He was a pioneer of those dancers - most of them starting their careers in the 1960s - who generated the synthesis of academic and progressive forms of movement which has by now become a well-established mode of expression.

The performance is not recommended for audiences under the age of 16.

The première was an event of the CAFe Budapest Contemporary Arts Festival.
