The show brings to life the myth of Prometheus, who used fire stolen from the gods to awaken people’s thinking, creativity and interest in the world. “Prometheus” is an impressively spectacular and sophisticated show – a combination of dance, acrobatics and live music.
Spectacle
The show’s creators build suspense by serving the audience an amplitude of sensations by alternating dynamic scenes with subdued ones, dramatic with comic, and spectacular with intimate. The essence of the show is impressive acrobatics and circus-like acrobatics that marvel at the possibilities of the human body. It’s more than a performance – it’s an experience guaranteed to give you goosebumps and hard-to-suppress thrills long after the show is over.
Theatre
The production draws on the heritage of ancient theatre and gives it a modern dimension that inspires and delights. At the same time, Prometheus is not just a collection of dance and acrobatic scenes, but also a carefully told story with timeless, universal content. It is a drama in which the actors wordlessly take wing and take the audience on a metaphorical journey about the origins of humanity.
Concert
Live music is a crucial part of Prometheus. Elżbieta Sokołowska’s original compositions are presented on stage by several dozen artists: the Wrocław Music Choir, who enchant the audience and take them on a moving musical journey full of tension, emotion and pleasure. All this is complemented by the dazzling soloists who, as the mythical Myrrh-bearers, bring songs in ancient Greek.
