I am a She
Her.I call her She.Obdurate and primeval and congenial. She, is ready to adjust. It is the voice of ancient women.Queens that got beheaded, courtesans that got stoned, witches that got burned alive.

These feelings may or may not be connected or confused with sexual feelings.

Post-Pandemic Theatre: The ‘after’ or the ‘against’?
I first used the term ‘Post-Pandemic Theatre’ as a self-made sarcastic term while I was writing an essay for the HfMT Dramaturgy Master of Arts department – during the first lockdown in March 2020. I would dare to say that back then, our imagination of the effects the new virus would have brought on our…
