“Disarmingly novel… ragged with feeling… prismatic and stark.”– Financial Times of London

“As contemporary choreographers go, Dušan Týnek is a rare breed” – Time Out New York

“Týnek is a talent who ... creates inventive, luscious movement (with) an instinct for theatrical effect” – The New York Times

"Gardens can be places of conflicting manifestations - beauty and horror, birth and death, hope and disappointment - one never knows what lurks behind the next hedge."  Internationally renowned choreographer Dušan Týnek ("Big, musical, full-bodied dancing… beauty abounded" – Deborah Jowitt, ArtsJournal) creates a highly kinetic evening-length work for 6 dancers with an original score and live performance by the acclaimed composer Aleksandra Vrebalov. A surrealistic homage to the middle panel of The Garden of Earthly Delights by H. Bosch.

Running time: 70 minutes, no intermission
