31/10/24, 19:00

To the captivating music of Antonín Dvořák, the dreamy story of a young woman will unfold before you. In Silent Woods, the protagonist dives into the depths of her mind, where she encounters echoes of the past. The relationship that once shaped her returns in the form of subconscious memories. After waking up, the heroine faces a crucial choice: return to the familiar past, or embark on a journey for a new, unknown horizon?

Capriccio, or caprice in Italian, can refer to a person's state of mind in terms of perception of surroundings and stimuli. In the case of the Capriccio choreography, it is about the perception of what happiness is for us and what makes us happy. If happiness is not just an illusion? Kind of like a movie MacGuffin that triggers a series of events and around which the plot takes place. Our desire for something that we think will make us truly happy may be nothing. But at the same time, it forces us to achieve nothing at any cost. If you've read this far, you might be expecting some deep message or explanation. But what if we tell you that this text is actually an insignificant thing that does not bring anything important to you and is actually just a whim of the production department? Isn't that paradoxical? We look for meaning where there may be none, just as we often look for happiness in unattainable goals. And yet, isn't this search what gives our lives dynamism and excitement? Thank you for your time and we wish you a pleasant and smooth experience. Let this Capriccio be a moment for you to reflect on your own whims and notions of happiness.

For2 offers a penetrating look at the complicated relationship between material wealth and human relationships. Can a coin break a bond stronger than steel? For2 reveals the fragility of relationships in a world ruled by materialism. Where there seemed to be solid ground, cracks suddenly appear. The audience will witness the moment - how apparent security can bring insecurity and apparent wealth to poverty of spirit. For2 invites us to think about what really makes up the richness of our lives.
