The Dragon (UA, fairytale for adults)
5 March at 19.00
International Centre of Culture and Arts (Nebesnoi Sotni 1)
It is an old story about a dragon that cannot be defeated, because he lives inside every city resident. However, it is not about the monster. It is all about people who are not ready to be free having become accustomed to being governed by the dictator. Killing the dragon is not enough – when he dies, they meekly obey another ruler’s command. This stunning production with fabulous costumes, original settings, live music, and memorable characters will mesmerise you from the very first minute.

House of Officers (Hrushevskoho 30/1)
Just imagine fluttering rainbow-coloured skirts, frills, shawls, fans, and castanets coupled with amazing footwork, energetic rhythms, and the sound of cracking heels and clapping hands. The show presents a series of flamenco tap dances, each of them with its own story and meaning. All feelings are expressed through mesmerising choreography: hate and love, passion and anxiety, sadness and joy. It is non-stop action involving famous Spanish musicians and dancers: Noelia Garsia, Antonio Molina, Norman Contreras, Antonio Moreno, Miguel Fernandez.
