𝐻𝑟𝑢𝑝𝑛𝑖 𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑖𝑓𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑧𝑎 𝑟𝑢𝑠̌𝑒𝑣𝑖𝑛𝑒 𝑗𝑢𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑠̌𝑛𝑗𝑒𝑔𝑎 𝑑𝑛𝑒.Tri plesalke tečejo plesni maraton, ki se razteza čez zgodovinski kontinuum – med osebno in kolektivno zgodovino, med preteklostjo, ki je še vedno pred nami, in prihodnostjo, ki smo jo že pustili za seboj. Predstava Razvedrila je konec se sooča z idejo napredka kot najbolj izčrpavajočo linearno pripovedjo ter uprizarja čustveno zgodovino sedanjosti – časa po tehnološki in družbeni revoluciji, ki se v resnici nikoli ni zgodila.
𝑅𝑎𝑧𝑣𝑒𝑑𝑟𝑖𝑙𝑎 𝑗𝑒 𝑘𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑐 ni še ena apokaliptična napoved niti nostalgično hrepenenje po idealizirani preteklosti. Je prej priznanje, da je eksperiment — na srečo — spodletel. Konec sveta še ni prišel, prav tako ne konec zgodovine. V tem zadržanem trenutku padanja se poetika vrtoglavice izriše kot najbolj krhka in nežna gesta predstave.

»Oddajam iz nekega kraja na Jugu, ki nikoli ni izstrelil rakete v vesolje in se je postaral ob počasnem internetu. Iz te pozicije skušam sestaviti razsuto, kinetično in zvočno kronologijo kolektivnega občutja: občutja, ki ga hkrati proizvajata izstrelitev v vesolje in potop v kibernetski prostor; občutja teles, ki po njem krožijo kakor vesoljski odpadki; občutja spektakla kot našega najbolj vztrajnega fetiša.«
Chara Kotsali je koreografinja, performerka in pedagoginja ter eden izrazitejših novejših glasov grške plesne scene. V svoji praksi razvija razširjen pristop h koreografiji in performansu, ki prepleta elemente antropologije, dokumentarnih metod, glasbe in različnih performativnih jezikov, pri čemer posebno pozornost namenja politiki zvoka in gibanja. Njena dela so bila predstavljena na prizoriščih v Grčiji in mednarodno, med drugim na festivalih Onassis Dance Days, Athens Epidaurus Festival in ImPulsTanz. Njena dela so bila izbrana v mrežo Aerowaves (Twenty24, Twenty26) ter platformo Moving Balkans.

In a dance marathon unfolding across the historical continuum, three women move between personal and collective memory, between the past that still lies ahead of us and the future we have already left behind. Focusing on the dancing body and using sound and poetry as choreographic materials, It's the end of the amusement phase confronts the idea of progress as the most exhausting of linear narratives. In the aftermath of a technological and social revolution that never truly happened, the performance traces an emotional history of the present.
𝐼𝑡'𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑒𝑛𝑑 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑎𝑚𝑢𝑠𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑝ℎ𝑎𝑠𝑒 is neither another apocalyptic prophecy nor a nostalgic longing for an idealized past. Rather, it acknowledges that the experiment has, fortunately, failed. The end of the world has not yet arrived, and neither has the end of history. In this suspended moment of falling, the poetics of vertigo emerges as the performance’s most fragile and tender gesture.

“Broadcasting from a place in the South that has never sent a rocket into space and grew old with slow internet, I wish to compose a messy kinetic and sonic chronology of the collective feeling produced by launching into space while simultaneously diving into cyberspace: of bodies floating like space debris, of spectacle as the most durable fetish.”
𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐊𝐨𝐭𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐢 (Greece) explores choreography and performance through an expanded approach, attempting to involve methodologies from anthropology, documentary art, music, and other performing languages while being particularly concerned with the politics of sound and movement. Her practice includes writing, field recordings, and DIY sound composition. Her work has been presented in Greece and internationally at festivals and venues including Onassis Dance Days, Athens Epidaurus Festival, and ImPulsTanz, and has been selected for the Aerowaves network’s Twenty24 and Twenty26 programmes as well as the Moving Balkans platform.
