REMEMBERANCE ABOUT BELOVED DECEASED
Special project Extracts 3 is a middle scale outdoor
performance - collage consisting
of fragments of two spectacles Femina v.2 and El
Nińo, including also autonomous, new and separate
sequences.
The performance in numerous version was presented
in Greece, Sweden, Croatia and Hungary. Short experimental
performance entitled Extracts as a special project
was created in first version for International Theatre
Project Mindscape (with Teatr Cogitatur, 2003, Athens,
Greece) and was presented three times on the Ancient
Roman Agora. Second version of the show (Extracts
II) was presented two times during Kulturnatta Festival
(2003, Goeteborg, Sweden). The idea of the cycle
Extracts is to be still in progress, that's why
it has a partly open composition.
Extracts 3 is the epitaph in memory of beautiful
woman, the protagonist of performance Femina v.2,
man's remembrance about beloved deceased. Sequences
of Extracts 3 are like his illness dream, full of
suffering, sad, beauty and cruel. In Extracts 3
the universal, ordinary and magical story of woman's
life and protagonist of this story: everywoman
(it is canvas of spectacle Femina v.2) was throwing
in contemporary context, world of
el nińo, post-industrial perverted reality.
Like spectacles Femina v.2 and El Nińo also special
project Extracts 3 is a non-verbal universal story,
produced by the method of emotional composition.
Stilts, water and open fire were used in the performance,
without any words on the stage.
