2014: I hate theatre. I love pornography

A performance by Zoukak Theatre Company, Lebanon. Curated by Ibsen Awards.

A showing off sketches: The result of a 3 week laboratory in Beirut/Skien and a collaboration between Zoukak Tehatre Company and Ibsen Awards.

The group has been working on dissecting Ibsen’s texts: An Enemy of the people and Pillars of Society as a framework to execute a theatrical investigation on the will, existence and effectiveness of the agency of the individual in today’s Lebanese and Syrian societies. In the initial face aiming to re- write Ibsen’s texts in the context of today’s Syro-Lebanese political situation, the period of the laboratory have been focused on how the individual negotiates the ironies behind social systems that have a veneer of stability, but are in fact damaged and torn from within.
