In the sequence of the measures approved by the Generalitat de Catalunya derived from the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, Antic Teatre – Espai de Creació postpone # JUANA DOLORES # * massa diva per a un moviment assembleari *.
# JUANA DOLORES # * massa diva per a un moviment assembleari * (too much Diva for an assembly movement) is a performance solo that, starting from the decontextualisation of ideology, symbology, and Marxist-Leninist terminology, shows the pain of the individual within the community as the desire to be socially and culturally sexualised; as a confession; as a declaration of love.
“I don’t believe in excuses. Making excuses is for cowards and traitors. I make an effort to keep suspecting the forest – there, in the distance / from on the scaffolding. However, a golden wind and my feet hesitate / and my tongue hesitates / and my pride hesitates: my stupid lack of balance launching me against the ideology that supports me.”
Juana Dolores (1992, El Prat de Llobregat) is the daughter of Andalusian immigrants to Catalonia. She is founder and co-ordinator of cybernetic device @HYBRIS.VIRAL
