Synopsis

The play "Hurry Up" is inspired with a present state of consciousness of the mankind, representing a reflection to the events in the modern world.
The action is situated in the first third of the past century, the period that for its dynamics, dramatics, and turmoil is very similar to the present moment of our lives.
Was there, ever, any different moment at this planet?!
Feodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevski said:
"Adequately enough, the terrible historical experience has shown to us that love towards the humanity, shown by the revolutionaries and utopians, has brought the biggest destructions and most disgusting crimes. Bringing up inside oneself a true love is not a simple task, due to which reason, especially when haughty and grandiose objectives are set, in our lives we are often meet a pseudo-love than real one. In order not to get confused on this way, we acquire huge wisdom."

 

Body Talk
Centre for Art of Movement "Madlenium" performed the play "Hurry Up" at Bitef teatar last night. According to the idea and choreography by Svetlana Djurovic, six young artists, with practiced, harmonised movements, showed that words were not always necessary. Body talk together with video art by Ranko Lasica reflected current state of mankind consciousness through the prism of events from the beginning of last century.
Dramatic nature of the play mostly aroused interest with young audience, which, in unusual movements of players' body, recognised speedy and hysterical image of time they live in. This is the moment that carried destruction with it.
