This evening will be an encounter between dance, literature and music as the Székesfehérvár Ballet Theatre pays homage to the memory of the victims of the Holocaust with their dance drama Stones, first premiered in the spring of 2024. What motivated director/choreographer Attila Egerházi and his co-creators was the recognition that the horror of the Holocaust can be expressed with more than words, as the human body and its movements and gestures can also be employed to communicate it. Constructed from subtle elements, this production guides viewers into emotional depths that surpass verbal understanding, into a place where the past and present are intertwined. It is not simply accompanying music that Sándor Födő has composed for the work: instead his score leads us through the labyrinthine piece like an invisible dance partner.

This production was made possible through the support of the Municipality of Székesfehérvár City with County Rights, the Prime Minister’s Office, Bethlen Gábor Alapkezelő Zrt. and the Hungarian Jewish Heritage Public Foundation.
