the feast or the story of a savoury corpse or how roman abramovič, the character janša, julia kristeva, age 24, simona semenič and the initials z.i. found themselves in a tiny cloud of tobacco smoke
"simona semenič feasted on a corpse and maybe that is all she wanted to say."
The script is about nameless women who suffer and die because of the patriarchal relations in our society. It is about the intolerance and the violence and the inaction of those who could change things, but they do nothing and they play the game. The play exposes the difference between (European) West and (European) East, the difference between those who devour and those who are being devoured. It subtly leads us to ask ourselves where our place at the global table is and to what measure we are responsible.
