Milchstraße

The piece is designed for a female dancer and an actor.

Inspired by Sarah Kane’s »4,48 psychosis«, the piece is set at a psychiatrist’s where the patient is admitted in a state of schizophrenia. Her only links with the outer world consist of a glass of milk and the doctor.

The relationship with her doctor oscillates between fascination, loathing, distrust, and hope. Yet, the psychiatrist subjects her to his own abnormalities and perversions. Both of them are hopeless souls, alienated from their bodies.
