When I met Baryshnikov

monodrama in one act

Date: 19 November
Time: 19:30
Venue:  Liszt Institute London
17-19 Cockspur St, London SW1Y 5BL

Can you sit nicely? Can you cross your legs? Can you even stand up? How do you start your day? What thoughts do you get out of bed with in the morning? And what thoughts do you go to bed with at night? Do you like dancing?

It's amazing how much you can say silently.

Do you know what it means to be truly free?

Come and join me for a session and you will experience unforgettable moments! I'll tell you about dancing, about art, about life.

All right, forget about life. I'll tell you what happened when I met Baryshnikov.

About the play

Eszter Csákányi conceived the idea of a new solo evening during the pandemic. Together with her co-creators, she has taken Johanna Bodor's autobiographical novel Never Mind, I'll Get It Eventually as her starting point, but has also drawn on her own experiences to explore waters where she has never danced before.
