The dance performance "Youth" or the scenarios by which people live will be the unique premiere of the 23rd A|CH theater season, where for the first time even three dance genres will be intertwined: classical ballet, contemporary-modern dance and street dance. Also, for the first time in the history of A|CH theater, well-known, experienced masters of stage art, ballet soloists, actors, dancers and 13-16-year-old children, the most talented students of ballet, dance and acting schools, will play roles on one stage.
The plot of the play "Youth" intertwines fragments of the lives of six families and collides two worlds - children's and adults'. It is a contrasting psychological tragicomedy, in which the modern dramas of family life are conveyed in the language of dance, set to the powerful music of Johann Sebastian Bach.
During the creative process, the director delved into the origin of fundamental family conflicts, based on the insights of psychologists. Speaking about the new dance performance "Youth", A. Cholina emphasizes: "I have always been interested in getting closer to the truth about life, exploring various aspects of relationships between people. Parent-child relationships are the most complex form of communication between people. Families are basically formed at a young age, so most become parents when they are still children…
It will be a kind of art therapy session that will allow you to look inside the family life. With this work, I want to encourage adults to look at children as equal personalities and to see the individuality they have brought in them. I hope that the models of family behavior seen in the play will make you think and inspire you to change..."
