Three Women
- The Juliusz Słowacki Theatre in Krakow - The Machine House [Miniature] Stage
Three female directors. Three actresses. Three perspectives on the life and work of Stanisław Wyspiański.
In her I’M LOOKING, LOOKING, LOOKING, Magda Miklasz is posing some questions: if you look at a painting closely enough, will you see a human being in it? How transient is art and inspiration? What are the paintings from which... the soul escapes? In I KNOW YOU LOVE WILTED FLOWERS, Renata Piotrowska-Auffret is taking a look at Teosia – the ailing artist’s wife. How would she describe her memories of Wyspiański? How would she talk about his illness, his body? And in KONRAD’S ISOLATION WARD, Ewa Rucińska asks about the meaning of Liberation in the days of ‘late Polishness’? In 2018, can we say that we are Liberated as a nation and society?
Three Women is an event combining theatre, performance, lecture and experimental choreography. It offers three intimate meetings with the Master.
