Synopsis: | Through a combination of monsters, demons, and his dysfunctional relationship with his father, Stasiu tries to overcome the harsh reality of his own existence, as his narcotic-abused life flashes before his eyes. Pulse 53 is an international ensemble of European Theatre Arts graduates from Rose Bruford College, who use montage, mime, and live music to create an interdisciplinary spectacle. This is Pulse 53's first show, which was created in collaboration with Andrzej and Teresa Welminscy, two of the original members of Taduesz Kantor's Cricot 2. | |||||
