From the stories of Medea (Luigi Cherubini), Salome and Elektra (Richard Strauss), and Turandot (Giacomo Puccini), traditionally portrayed as victims of passion, madness, or fate, themes of resistance, emancipation, and radical opposition to the patriarchal order in which they were confined are extracted. The bodies of the performers from Krakowski Teatr Tańca become vehicles of transformation, spaces where old operatic narratives are encoded. Humanoid bots hack opera librettos, trying to go beyond the stories programmed into their systems. The deconstruction of history is reinforced by Piotr Peszat’s music, which uses classical sounds (arias performed by Anna Zawisza) in a modern composition. Fragments of librettos and recognizable motifs become material for deconstruction—a musical palimpsest that resonates with the physical actions of the performers. The performance is funded by the European Union NextGenerationEU under KPO for culture. #NextGenerationEU #FunduszeUE #KPOdlaKultury
