Brecht – The hardcore machine

The performance is not a play. The postdramatic theatre is a consequence of the literary drama. Brecht – The hardcore machine is a story about a young girl who, before painting her nails, picks up a worker glove, and in that moment she steps into the fascinating world of ideology and carnality. During the rehearsal period the actor exists only as a body. The body moves. Movement is an action. Physical action evokes dramatic, historical contents. This is when the dramatical actor comes on stage, executes, performs.

Work. Starvation. Sex. Power. Entertainment.

Based on the Buckower Elegies by Bertold Brecht.
