The Wooden Prince / The Miraculous Mandarin ExperiDance – Sándor Román Company

Both pieces present the eternal, secret-dense struggle in the relationship between man and woman, seeking the basic truths of our human existence through it. Walking the paths of the soul the author is connected to the everyday events of his age. The turbulent social changes of the 20th century, the wild fury endangering hundreds of thousands of lives of the dark forces released from the depths of the soul are inseparable from the basic idea of the pieces. It aims to present Bartók’s life-affirming truth and his belief in the purification and elevation of the soul despite these conditions.

Creators of stage performances in the 21st century can have no other aim either than to remain faithful to the creative purpose despite the chaotic forces swirling around us, and present the love of two souls embracing each other through the way of a man and a woman to each other, which is capable of purifying the whole world.
