The Autumn of the Patriarch

Nov15Sun, November 1519:00
Arten Theatre2 Lusinyanci poxoc, Yerevan, Armenia
5000 AMD

Ulyana Kirpichenko’s one-woman performance based on Gabriel García Márquez’s novel. Who holds power? Governments, corporations, the internet, society? Power on Earth appears as a strange geometric figure: several corners of global force and a thousand-line network between them, yet its nature remains unchanged at every point. Gabriel García Márquez’s "The Autumn of the Patriarch" tells of a man whose tiny body could not withstand the weight of this power. The abstract dictator becomes the embodiment of a force that destroys everyone, including himself. Language: Russian.

Organizer
