NOV

THIRD // SPACE: NOV

The journey into the collective unconscious begins with birth. It is full of slippery roads and leads to the very bottom of our souls where we meet our fears, doubts, dilemmas and most importantly ourselves. What do we fear the most? What is it like to see oneself in the lights of trams passing by the darkened windows of a synagogue? An experimental performance nov (new moon) is based on the Siberian report bearing witness to the birth of a shaman; the performance peeks in the depths of human horror and invites the audience to meet the fears which only belong to them but at the same time are common to all mankind. A fifty-minute trip to the dark side of the moon offers the possibility of an open dialogue with doubts which on and on call to be answered.
