Holdin' fast


DOT 504 - Holdin' fast - Foto: Petr Otta
It was the worldwide bestseller The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera that inspired the Slovak Josef Frucek and the Greek Linda Kapetanea of DOT504 to the show Holdin' fast.

the eternal embrace
According to Kundera, the weight of a lover is the greatest pleasure, and making love - the eternal embrace, the highest attainable reward.

Holdin' Fast
That doesn't mean that there are no problems, as seen by the three couples in Holdin' Fast, produced by this young troupe from Prague. Attachment may indeed quickly turn into dependence, which can lead to manipulation and submission.

Sober and direct
The influence of Wim Vandekeybus can be detected in the energetic movements and sharply timed partner work, but these former dancers of Ultima Vez follow their own path, sober and direct.

Fantastic at the Fringe
The show was the surprise of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2008 and received no less than five stars of Fringe Review!
