Teatr Novogo Fronta Performs in Merlin Theatre

English

?Performances of the Teatr Novogo Fronta are constructed from images which stand on the frontier between mysticism and abstraction, circus art and modern dance, where the main force is the action, improvization and tension amplified by the ridiculousness of human tragedy,? the troupe says on its website.
 
The troupe will perform Dias de las Noches on Sunday. The piece is about two Russian actors in the Buenos Aires of 1974 living ?someone else?s nightmare?.
 
Lyn Gardner, writing for The Guardian, called the piece ?an astonishing piece of physical theatre?. ?If Hieronymus Bosch had known burlesque, this is what he would have painted.?
