Two days of profound emotions: this is what the performances CRIPPLETREK and BLOOD HYGIENE — two productions by Divadlo Líšeň presented in Rome — have left within us.
The evenings of 7 and 8 May were marked by surprise, discovery and the shared experience of the magic of unconventional storytelling together with the many spectators who attended the events.
For many of us, the theatrical language introduced by Divadlo Líšeň became a kind of “spectators’ initiation” — a new way of understanding both old and new stories through a narrative form that employs a complex language while remaining utterly immediate in its imagery and associations.
We marvelled, understood, sometimes interpreted things in our own way, and in the end completely surrendered ourselves to the brilliant direction, the mastery of both performers, and the fascinating masks and strange scenic objects, whether radiant or sombre.
Held as part of The Courage to Know project, Co-funded by the European Union. Event is supported by a grant from the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic.
