(La) horde, Ensemble Iveroni
Marry me in Bassiani
IN TBILISI, A WEDDING IS BEING HELD ACCORDING TO THE CENTURIES-OLD TRADITION, AND THEN THE MUSIC AND DANCE ARE SET FREE, THE BRIDE REBELS, AND THE CEREMONY EXPLODES INTO A TECHNO PARTY. THIS IS A NEW LIFE FOR GEORGIA!
The revival of a play that saw (LA)HORDE enter into the annals of history. In 2018, the unpredictable trio already acclaimed as a reference simply disappeared. Where were they hiding? In Tbilisi! Next, to the surprise of all concerned, they reappeared with the Iveroni Ensemble, a troupe epitomizing the spirt of the culture passed down over generations. But they were still hunting down signs of the younger generation of rebels, and they found them in the Bassiani, a techno club with a reputation extending beyond the borders of Georgia. The hornpipe dance by the Iveroni in traditional costume takes off in unlikely ways, developing to present a view of society embracing new life.
