Simona Semenič: To last, premiere
Prefestival event of 24th International Festival of Contemporary Arts – City of Women
21st Sep. / 8pm
The Old Power Station Ljubljana
To Last, a durational performance by the playwright and performer Simona
Semenič, is her public reading of her complete works, ensuring the writing to
be heard in her precarious voice.
The performance title, To Last, symbolizes a certain cleansing ritual: to the
last viewer, to the last text, to the last meaning, to the last wish, to the
last atom of strength … And finally, it is a process through which the
accumulated time of rigid cultural and societal codes will regain a piece of
the future.
