Choreographed by Laurence Yadi and performed by Compagnie 7273, Silahkan invites audiences into a fluid, hypnotic dance inspired by Balinese ritual and imagery. Objects and fabrics transform into shifting landscapes as precise, undulating gestures create a continuous calligraphic movement.

Accessible to young audiences, its delicate staging transforms dance into a universal language.

The atmosphere alternates between intimate altars and exuberant street-party energy, inviting a sensory journey through memory, mourning and joyful remembrance.

Bernard Rose’s 1992 horror classic Candyman transposes urban folklore into a chilling psychological tale. Following Helen Lyle, a graduate student researching local myths, the film unravels as belief and violence intersect, conjuring a spectral figure summoned before a mirror. Shot with stark atmosphere and visceral imagery, Candyman explores themes of collective memory, social marginalization and the power of myth to haunt everyday life.
