Correction

Imagine a world where you can’t progress despite your best efforts to  push forward.Award winning contemporary dance company VerTeDance have  created a beautifully poignant piece about our lack of freedom,  reclusion and our power to make decisions. The cast weaves around their  own shadows whilst a live modern minimalist soundtrack by Clarinet  Factory builds a fluid tension.

Reflexes, slants and curvatures; pushing off, tipping and falling –  every imbalance is corrected and brought back to equilibrium. With  theatrics, choreographic moments and subtle humor, Correction shows that  the attainment of freedom often goes hand in hand with loss. But above  all, it shows that lack of freedom to decide can also result in comfort,  relief, familiarity and devotion – even happiness.

Havelka, Jiří

Jiří Havelka is a theater director, actor, co-founder and moderator of Óčko television.  He was born on June 17, 1980 on the Czech-Moravian border, in Jihlava.  He lived with his own father in his five years, so he was brought up in a family with the same women.  With my mom and two sisters.  He claims he is very choleric and he does not like to admit mistakes.  Perhaps it is the belief that it is pushing him forward. 

He studied at the grammar school in Jihlava until his 17 years of age,  where he already participated in the foundation of the HOBIT theater  association.  After graduation he studied at DAMU in Prague, directing department.   During his studies, he began to play and direct on a small stage the  Ypsilon Studio in Spalena Street, where he still works today. 

At the moment he is also a member of the cabaret theater VOSTO5, which  is known for promoting open forms of author's productions.  And, of course, improvisation in which there is no competition. A great success, for example, is their Standard Cabaret. 

As a director he also works at the Dejvicke Theater and at the DISK Theater.  He also directs the author's games (1203 or Unsatisfied, Man, Try it !, Drama in Brief, Nadsamec Jarry, Black Hole, and more).  He co-organized the Jihlava International Documentary Film Festival and organizes Festival Cute Drama. 

He is co-founder of the Óčko TV station, where he is the creator and moderator of the improvisation skeptic program Barage.  In 2007 he won the Alfred Radok Award as the talent of the year. 

He is a very charismatic, talented man with incredible fantasy.  It is visible and felt that what he does loves every piece of his soul.  He puts a piece of himself in everything, and it is unpaid today.

Clarinet Factory

Imagine a musical workshop or lab to give you a bit of clarinet art, classical  music education, a bit of ethno, jazz, and let's say minimalism.  You  add your taste to improvise, buy the latest electronics and technology,  invite interesting guests and start exploring, creating and mainly  communicating with listeners. From the environments you create, then you'll find a unique genre that can  have a lot of things in common with the established crossover term, but  you can even more freely express yourself as "music without borders".
