Premiere of Life in This House is Over

  • Date: November 4 & 5
  • Location: Piekarnja Stage, Wrocław

Join us for the highly anticipated premiere of Life in This House is Over. This unique and evocative production has been years in the making. Directed by [Director’s Name], the piece is a deeply personal exploration. It draws inspiration from formative encounters with legendary performance artists Pina Bausch and Teatr ZAR. Since its inception in 2007, the production has gradually evolved. Starting from the initial drafts in Moscow, it has now become a profoundly collaborative masterpiece.

Furthermore, the performance brings together an extraordinary international ensemble. The cast includes Ditte Berkeley, Kamila Klamut, Ola Aleksandra Kugacz-Semerci, Claudia Ortiz-Arraiza, Anthony Nikolchev, Mertcan Semerci, Julie Shanahan, Julie Anne Stanzak, and Tess Voelker. Each artist brings a distinctive voice to this vibrant, living work. Additionally, the designs by Marcel Weber, Salmah Beydoun, Aslaug Magnusdottir, and Angela Trivino enrich the production.

Supported By: This project was made possible through the generous support of the Pina Bausch Zentrum, David Geffen School of Drama at Yale, Tanztheater Wuppertal, Teatr ZAR, and the Polish Ministry of Culture.
