COCKTAIL 012 - THE BEST OF

The most popular of Laterna magika’s numbers from recent years plus a retro revue. A composed programme includes excerpts from successful pieces that were or still are on Laterna magika’s repertory (the most recently included parts are The Breakneck Ride – the oldest excerpt from Variations created 1963; The Magic Flute, Rendez-vous, Legends of Magic Prague, and other). Besides, the show includes a 30 minutes multimedia piece Code 58.08: a show that goes back to the roots of Laterna magika’s creative technique.

The first part of the night introduces diverse creative principles of Laterna magika: from epic narratives to abstract choreographies, from film screen magic to digital technology and playing with the vision. Once the intermission is over, you will have the chance to see Code 58.08, a show that goes back to the roots of Laterna magika in terms of form. Its costume design and music are nostalgic, the message, however, relates to our present days. Join the dancers in their wandering around the hidden spaces of the New Stage as well as locations connected to the history of Laterna magika – places where secret wishes are revealed and futuristic visions turn real.
