Non Solus

Non Solus (Not Alone) is the story of two humans finding one another, and exploring the innermost depths of their imaginations. Directed and choreographed by Bence Vági, the cirque danse production is performed by Renato Illés and Gábor Zsíros. Staged in an imaginary space spun from illusions the piece merges dance and circus, where the contrast is extended through the synchronicity between the performers and their physical setting. Humanity's journey from birth to death is depicted in the context of an apparently living, breathing, organic stage set. This symbiosis between living and non-living materials, between the artists and their setting, propels the story forward to its inevitable conclusion. Classical compositions by Bach are alternated with electronic and contemporary organ music to create an innovative aural space that reinforces the dramatic shifts unfolding on the visual plane. The 2019 premiere of Non Solus in New York’s BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Art), one of the world’s leading centres for progressive and avant garde performances marks the first ever USA staging of a Recirquel production.
