Eight short compositions from the life of Ukrainians for a Western audience

“The empty space is filled with emotions that are transferred to the audience.”

Eight Short Compositions from the Lives of Ukrainians for a Western Audience is a response to Russian arrogance directed against the peaceful Ukrainian nation. Clatter of guns and the worried voices of politicians are heard from all the media. Five performers, each from a different European country – Ireland, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Sweden and Ukraine, meet in a metaphorical space defined by text projection, musical composition, singing and personal statement. Together they search for hope rooted in the tradition and routine of everyday life.The performance was created in cooperation with the Jam Factory center in Lviv as part of the Artists in War international project.

The text by Anastasia Kosodii is projected in Czech and English.
