Marta Wołowiec

In times of darkness and anxiety, we wonder what pleasure is – pleasure in life, pleasure in dancing or watching dance. The creators are inspired by the phenomenon of choreomania – a dancing plague that has appeared in various places in Europe for over ten centuries. The mania of dancing in the streets gathered hundreds of people in a common crazy dance until they were exhausted, lost consciousness, and sometimes even lost their lives.
