CUNTHATE
Calendar
CUNTHATE [URĂ] stands against the anti-woman propaganda behind profitable GONZO pornography, which pushes the bodily limits of females through violent sex acts. By comparing the violent pornographic acts to approved torture and popular culture, CUNTHATE [URĂ] warns of the influence of pornographic violence on our media and of its impact on interpersonal relationships in our society. The rapes represented in the performance have happened in the past on a vast scale.
BÉZNĂ Theatre is an Anglo-Romanian theatre collective driven by theatre directors and playwrights Sînziana Koenig and Nico Vaccari, formed in London in 2013. Nico and Sînziana, together with a number of international collaborators, are devoted to creating viscerally and emotionally engaging theatre with the principal purpose of challenging inequality and provoking a socio-political dialogue with its audience regarding vital contemporary issues in the time of deregulated capitalism.
