Prayers

Dance theater by the dots collective

What can we leave behind for the next generation? This is the question posed by the "Prayers" project. The answer is uncertain, but we are on the path of hope for a future based on past experience.
The concept for Prayers was born four years ago. Each relevant artistic discipline conducted research from different perspectives. The central approach was to examine the history of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
The focus remains not only on suffering, but on exploring the process by which people from different backgrounds find common hope. It is also a realization that everyone feels different pains in their respective situations.
In the Prayers project, all elements on stage merge into a single experience.
