After The Water Boy and the Water and Worms, director and creator Ariel Sereni Brown returns with his third premiere at the Autumn Cult festival.
An Israeli artist searches for her place in the international art world.
In the forests of the north, she encounters a Swedish artist willing to mentor her on the path to success.
His ideas lead her to a meeting with a Palestinian artist at a gas station, where she proposes a demanding artistic deal.
Meanwhile, a frog infiltrates the art market and the economy of identity, musing with hollow notions of war and oppression.
The play presents a cold world in which fashionable activism and identity capital grant the illusion of change.
It is a play without actors, where the written word sprawls across the stage like a satirical scroll on state violence.
Ariel Sereni Brown engages with the tension between grand theatrical traditions and fringe cultures.
His works probe how cultural, geographical, and political surroundings seep into the imagined space of the stage, between the fantastic and the concrete, the familiar and the strange.
From an abandoned bank vault, to a miniature puppet theatre, to a wandering tent, Brown invents and uncovers new forms through which theatre can be born, and die.
The work is structured as an installation under unique viewing conditions.
Audience capacity is extremely limited.
