Hit is a solo performance exploring themes of amplification, exaggeration, and extension within the act of striking. It works with non-aestheticized physical gesture that overflows into action, image, speech, and text. Through a minimalist yet highly communicative approach to theatrical action, impact, radicality, and anger are transformed into the language of everyday life.
The performance loosely follows the author’s solo Pitch (2015), presented both in the Czech Republic and internationally, and builds on the directness characteristic of the work of the artistic duo Bárta–Třešňáková (Tak přesně o ráji… to není, 2010; Sticker, 2014 – nominated for Performance of the Year and the DNA Nová síť Award).
