More about the event:
What's Happening: Against the backdrop of a big screen are four performers. At great speed, they exchange questions and answers that relate to the most important areas of human life - science, politics, family, drugs, sex, religion. Briefly outlining all the complexity of the world, they try to answer the question "who am I?". This hour-long "meditation" makes it clear that the answer to this question lies beyond language.
What you'll feel:
Eleutheromania (Greek, ελευθερομανία) is an intense, irrepressible desire for freedom.
Dépayser (French) - Disorientation; not necessarily unpleasant (e.g., a pleasant feeling of being unusual from being in a foreign country).
Resfeber (Swedish) - Travel fever/wanderlust; The feeling of excitement and nervousness that a traveler feels before embarking on a journey.
What you need to know: This is a new play by director and playwright Ivan Vyrypaev, who combines his interest in theater with spiritual practices. This almost universal text was embodied in performances in Ukrainian, English, Romanian and other languages, clearly showing the ability of a cultural object to overcome national borders. Vyrypaev's text directed by Nikolai Mishin is unique in that it first makes you think intensely, and then feel intensely.
