Music and songs by 2 Huicholes chamanes (Marakames José Luis y Enrique Ramírez on violin) - from the Wixáriks indigenous tribe from Sierra Huichola in Sierra Madre Occidental mountains at Alfréd ve dvoře in Holešovice. Ctibor Turba a mime, choreographer, director, and professor opened the Divadlo mimů Alfred ve dvoře (Alfred in the Courtyard, the Theatre of Mimes) in 1997. During the two years many performances were created in the theatre, which were presented at international festivals, while foreign groups' performances came to the Alfred.

In March 2001 Turba decided to give up the artistic and organizational management of the Alfred ve dvoře theatre and hand over its spaces to the Motus association. The name originates in the Turba's Cirkus Alfréd project started 1974.
