Prague premiere of Behind the White Whale at the New Stage of the National Theatre.
The work combining theatre and sound design presents a mass for the mythical whale and the world which is drawing to its close. The sonic exploration of a forlorn song of whales uses synthesizers and resonant trinkets. The hunter and the prey are in a landscape of the wretched world sailing the ocean of storytelling and technologies with the help of hi-tech and old-school navigation systems.
