6 March 2024, central Warsaw. The wild scream of women became the impulse for a story about violence, trauma and painful silence. The myth of Medusa is used here as a mirror for processes of dissociation and rebirth.

The performance builds a universal artistic language through body, rhythm and image, using Polish Sign Language as an integral element of the dramaturgy.

Running time: 1 h
Subtitles: Polish, English
Polish Sign Language interpretation

Regular ticket: PLN 30
