In this performance, we will focus on the power of language and spoken words, reciting the text in a rhythmical and melodious manner. We have decided to refrain from delivering an expressive dramatic performance, instead making discourse central, insisting on a clear recitation of the words and their meaning. Of course, this approach does not entail that performers will lack theatricality and passion. The use of masks and carefully planned movement will infuse our performance with theatricality. The performance will adopt a very strict motif of music and movement, allowing performers to express themselves inside a very tightly made aesthetic universe.
