Ec dysis crisis, mom<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\n

Ec dysis crisis, mom. I know you don’t understand it. Honestly, neither do I. <\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we had to describe the state we’re in with a single word, many of us would probably choose the word crisis<\/em>. But isn’t every era, in some way, a little critical? And is a crisis still a crisis once it becomes the norm? Are we living on the edge \u2014 or already far beyond it? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can the disintegration of the audience’s experience mirror the disintegration we exist within? Can theatrical language grasp a reality that ordinary language cannot? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The performance ec dysis crisis, mami<\/em> explores situations of crisis. Through its open form, it blurs the unified field of audience attention and attempts to communicate personal and societal threshold states through an associative language. It examines the limits of comprehensibility across various reflections of reality, and searches for a way out through incomprehensibility. It works with the format of personal testimony as a response to social phenomena. It abandons meaningful language in an attempt to find meaning again. It deconstructs its own thematic foundations in an attempt to truly claim them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that the audience is not guaranteed a seat during the performance. If your health condition requires a seat, please request a reservation at participants@encounter.cz<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
