DESCRIPTION
"Meadow" - a moving choreographic exploration of trauma, memory, intergenerational pain." - TanzRaum Berlin Magazin
The piece tells the story of a grandfather and a meadow - a meadow from which he was taken by Soviet soldiers at the age of ten and sent into exile.
The audience is gently addressed through a monologue that seeks to acknowledge the trauma inflicted by the Soviet Union regime on the people and places of Eastern Europe. The monologue seeks dialogue. With love it asks: Are we capable of feeling each other's pain?
NOTE: "Meadow" (23 Min. solo) can be shown in the same evening with "Cracks" (23 Min. solo) forming a full evening piece.
