/ORT I.

a man can break

an original dramaturgy inspired by peter handke’s “kaspar” and heiner müller’s “horatio”

a performance of self-effacement

a coup breaks out in a peaceful city. in one night, three sisters are forced to change their way of thinking and speaking in order to survive in the new regime. in order to be liked they stop judging, they forget how to think, they give up their ideology. they become the same, clumsy and violent.

director’s note
can i maintain my ideology against survival instinct? do i have an ideology we tell a story of linguistic torture, in which three people are transformed to be useful, smoothed and blunted so as not to annoy. they undergo the invention of typography: their uniqueness is eliminated, they become interchangeable and replaceable. But were they ever truly unique? there is a mechanism that grinds and transmutes, a mechanism that I have unwittingly admired and served. and now i need to exorcise him
