PRIMA VISTA PENTHESILEA

The content on this page was translated automatically.

On the fields outside Troy, Penthesilea and Achilles face each other, armed to the teeth and each with an army behind them. At first glance, it becomes clear that taking possession of the other is the booty they want to take home from the battlefield. For both of them, you can only love what you have subjugated.
In PRIMA VISTA PENTHESILEA, a four-person ensemble stands on the scene of this proud battle between two opponents fighting for each other and for the preservation of their own identity.
In their search for the difference between making themselves vulnerable and allowing themselves to be hurt, they play out these very moments of direct encounter on stage, with Penthesilea, with themselves, with the other. A leap into the first glance: a prima vista.
