Slip Grip

**The performance SLIP GRIP by choreographer Jitka Sara Páníková and composer Natálie Pleváková is a walk on the edge. Literally.**The performer puts on roller skates she doesn’t know how to ride. A body that has spent its entire life striving for perfect control suddenly finds itself on an unfamiliar surface. It balances, reacts, and questions its habits. A space emerges where, instead of a precise show, sincerity is offered, and where the ride begins precisely where certainty disappears.

Instead of certainty—the search for balance. Instead of performance—presence.

On stage, fragility meets determination. It’s not about falling, but about trusting what will happen the moment there’s nothing left to hold on to. For introverts in a noisy world. For anyone who has ever found themselves out of rhythm, yet continued to dance through the world.
And if you’re expecting instructions on how to get out of this, SLIP GRIP won’t provide any. Just the ride. Unpredictable, unpolished—and perhaps liberating precisely because of that.

What if it is precisely where we lose control that we truly begin to skate?

The revival of SLIP GRIP is accompanied by a roller skating program created in collaboration with Alyssa Dillard and VERONISKATES / Prague Roller Girls, exploring the theme of movement on the edge of control and loss of certainty—from individual experience to shared movement in space.

An open rollerblading workshop will take place before the performance, followed by a dance session, Liminal Roller Disco.Schedule:
