A portrait of a life at the bottom of our society. That reveals that we live comfortably because others do the crap jobs. That even here, in our backyard, we feast on slave labor, abuse and exploitation. Which Paula is trying to escape. With a lot of trial and error.
To do what she was apparently born to do; play. (Clean.NET) 11h45-12h by Paula Kopczyk is a show moment (work in progress); Paula Kopczyk & MARTHA!TENTATIEF test the first half hour of what will hopefully be a full-fledged performance.
Text and acting: Paula Kopczyk / coach: Bart Van Nuffelen – With the support of MARTHA!TENTATIEF and WIPCOOP / MESTIZO ARTS PLATFORM
