HYSTERIA

Performance 

HYSTERIA

HYSTERIA will be a performance and theater performance about the imbalance of the feminine over the years and the dark ways in which it has tried to come out. While playing, we investigate how hysteria may have transformed into our modern times. We ask the important question of whether there is really anything “wrong” with hysteria patients. Do the symptoms of hysteria over the years indicate illness or are they the medicine? We are talking about mediality, intuition and gut feeling, disbelief, objectivity and medical/scientific distance. We do this, among other things, by studying mythical archetypes.
