Ways to freedom / the struggle for freedom / use of freedom / abuse of freedom.
Who would have guessed that one of the most acute theatrical analyses of the moral crisis of today’s society would be an interpretation of an ancient Greek tragedy? In their orgiastic frenzy, the Bacchae – Dionysus‘ female retinue – interrogare the limits of individual and collective freedom.
Milan Ondrík as Pentheus versus Daniel Fischer as Dionysus, in an unequal fight of man against god. The first Slovak translation of Euripides‘ famous play spans the millennia to offer a cruel, bloody yet cathartic tragedy of a contemporary individual bound by moral extremes. Philosophically and visually compelling scenes depicting the ecstasies of a hedonistic society kept in check by the rule of power and order tell of the limitations imposed on the will and freedom by necessity and fate. Reason and emotion are mirrored in the opposing models of absolutism and anarchy.
