Our Olympic Champions in the Circus transformed into a beach bath – photos
April 1 is weird by communication The Metropolitan Circus appeared: the institution’s Facebook page announced that after 136 years of existence, the only stone circus in Central Europe would close its doors, and further fate was promised later. Because of the timing, many people had a joke in April behind the post, but after the post was followed by two similar, more and more people began to take the news seriously. Let’s say there was some truth, because the building started transformation work, which was published on the same day by management.
Of course, the increased attention was ride a little more and first round about it have been informed the great The institution will open a water center from April 12, 2025. Their decision was explained by the popularity of the opposite Széchenyi Spa and swimming pool, promising the creation of the most important and popular water complex in Central Europe.
You didn’t have to wait much to find out that visitors would not swim in the beach bath – the 11,000 -liter pool built into the scene is part of a new production Splash! was introduced to the audience on April 12. As the institution’s announcement revealed in advance, the spectacular performance, tailored to the summer season, will be held until September, promising a special time travel to the audience.
But why is this circus?
The capital circus in the capital is typically based on classical, but always promising thematic productions. The Splash! with their lecture, they jump a hundred years back in time, teleporting the audience in a water sports center, teleporting a summer pool swimming pool. Director Peter Fekete He wanted to evoke the mood and sense of life of the 1920s – The invincible summer, characterized by the desire for cheerfulness, life, and creativity, – the positive energy and liberating power in circus art is perfectly capable of this. As there have been memorable results in the field of sport from now on, the creators also incorporated the water -related Hungarian successes in connection with the production theme.
Olympic champions and a clown pair of stunts together
In fact, the backbone of the lecture is that the artist numbers are screened on the LEDs on the wall of the institution on the walls of the institution. The production starts in memory of Alfred Hajós, but Béla Simon, Adrián Juhász, Natasa Janics, Katalin Kovács, Tamás Darnyi, Krisztina Egerszegi, Attila Czene, Ágnes Kovács and the men’s water polo team in 2004, who excelled in wet sports.
Not only do the projectors, on the stage, the production are a recurring element of the production: Nikolai Komovalov and Anvar Sattarov, a Russian clown known as Gruppa Zakhvata, appear among the tracks. It is a huge positive that their jokes do not go into discomfort – they are definitely fun, and through the interactions with the audience, they make people feel as if he were sometimes involved in the performance. Well, even in spectators who, after some excitement, they can get into their game specifically!
At the premiere, actor-singer Anita Gábor led the audience throughout the tracks-she said, conferenced, presented the performing artists, but we could hear her voice in the songs that the band accompanied. Musically, Splash! It is exactly the same quotation as in dance choreographies and outfits, while the props, in addition to retro beach -white, reinforce the water line with the ship/canoe motif.
Giant parrots caused confusion on the auditorium
In his mood, the audience saw a very cheerful performance on Saturday, which the dancers hit with a common swing. Subsequently, the artists came in turn: leaping on the Russian Wacko & Co quadruple rubber table presented by breathtaking stunts, while the French Valentino Togni Bouglione and Ukrainian students of Old Circus School were in the Handstand genre. The Russian Aldana Abdullaeva was balanced on a huge ball, and shortly afterwards, Andrea Fehérgyarmati and Gabriella Tóth’s Gagrtni duet were impressed.
Although each of the productions nailed the viewers to the seat, two of them really left a deep impression. One is the Canadian-Moldova Duo Soulthat is, Sabrina Aganier and Timofei Cemco Air Colar stunt, whose piquant is that airborne people form a party in real life, and their love for each other is overwhelmed by their movements. The air around them is regularly vibrating as they look at each other at the height, and although it is likely to be a tremendous effort to keep the other hand or with their mouths, or their mouths, they move so gracefully and softly, and they can pick up such postures that really fall off.
Another outstanding attraction is the Italian Alessio Focesato It was the number of parrots, which made everyone with the power of surprise. After Alesso entered and spread his arm, two giant birds flew from the rear from the audience to his hands, to which several others later joined in smaller or larger sizes. The parrots were cracked several times over the audience’s heads, performing various tasks with them.
The audience has received a encouraging message as a way
The Splash! Its finale culminated in a water-rocked Vizishow, when all the nozzles of the fountain were stacked from the pool built into the field, splashing water in different figures. At that time, the montage of the Olympic champions was projected, and a boat named after a dream ship was pushed into the middle, with all the performers entering one by one. With the help of the audience, they also got oars in their hands that stated that
« Pull it in, don’t give up! »
Meanwhile, various flags were replaced by the montage, thus demonstrating the unity of nations. Under the applause, the creators joined the artists, and finally the final message of the production appeared on the wall:
« Make your dreams! »
