DON’T LIE TO THE PLANET

URBAN VERBUNK CRY FOR HELP
AGAINST DESERTIFICATION

URBAN VERBUNK uses the tools of dance to draw public attention to a serious ecological problem. The dancers visited „one of the worst environmental disasters on the planet” to make their international awareness video.
Combining the traditional elements of folk dance with the tools of modern movement culture, Urban Verbunk shot in Uzbekistan to reflect on the global problem of water shortage with a unique spot. The message of the clip is that we are in the last hour, and if we do not act, the ecological processes will become irreversible.

FASHION BARBAR –  COUNTRYSIDE IN THE CITY

The grandiose, uniquely visualized country image building video series filmed with the closure of Andrássy Street and the Buda Castle Tunnel, as well as hungarian grey cattle, is entitled “Countryside in the city”, which is accompanied by a new musical sound, combining traditional and classical values with the style of the modern trap.

TRADITION AND MODERNITY – URBAN VERBUNK

The Hauser X Urban Verbunk country image building video was created in the spirit of Hungarian-Croatien cultural diplomacy, in which our wonderful capital, Budapest, and Hungarian culture are presented.

We would like to bring your attention to two performances of the company, The Dance of the Elements, and The Rózsa Story.

THE DANCE OF THE ELEMENTS

Dance in the air,
the fire and the water!

 

Their special show combines fire and water, earth and air on the same stage.

But how is this possible?

Well, with a pool filled with more than 2,500 litres of water, a flaming floor and sparking drumsticks, as well as a 40 square metre trampoline mat stretched out by nearly 350 steel springs.

RÓZSA STORY

Traditional folk dance spiced with thoughtprovoking acrobatic elements.

 

Urban Verbunk brings the life of Sándor Rózsa to the stage in a unique and powerful way.

Lively rhythms, ultimate dynamics and boundless vitality are the hallmarks of the company’s performances.

Upside-down, fast-paced Gyimesi Csángó movements, instrumental war dances, sharp knives and chains.

Urban Verbunk made a video for the 2020 European Football Championship in response to UEFA’s request. In addition to showcasing the blend of football and Hungarian culture, the video also aimed to promote Budapest.

URBAN VERBUNK is regularly sought out by the biggest names of the Hungarian Entertainment Industry for collaborations and joint projects.
