Farm in the Cave’s performances arise out of long-term research, focused on the transmission of human experience beyond words and the limits of ordinary understanding. Having performed in more than sixty cities on three continents, Farm in the Cave International Theatre Studio have received numerous awards, including the European Prize for New Theatrical Realities for Director Viliam Dočolomanský, Total Theatre Award, The Grand Prix Golden Laurel Wreath Award, and the Fringe First Award. The company has established itself as a “modern laboratory” offering “asylum” to performers who are encouraged not only to work on new ways of expression, but also to constantly reassess their attitude towards themselves and others through their research work on different social topics. In recent years the work of Farm in the Cave has focused on exploring “difficult“ topics that tend to be ignored by contemporary society. Performers and creators have carried out field research in global metropolises such as Brussels, Tokyo, Prague, and London, often gaining unprecedented access to specific social groups and communities. Directly shared experience with members of these communities led the performers to create emotionally strong shows and to spread awareness about the researched topics through a number of other public activities. Farm in the Cave’s specific approach to research works not only as a dramaturgical tool, but also as a vehicle for unexpected and mutually enriching encounters among very different social groups.
