The performance Fucking Truffaut by Bliadski Circus Queelective developed for the Maxim Gorki Theatre, under the direction of the Ukrainian director Roza Sarkisian, asks questions such as: Can we still explore and discover new narratives of war discourse? Is critical art possible in times when all culture is put on a propaganda track? How to escape the circle of reproduction of artistic militaristic discourse? Does society need theater when kamikaze drones are flying overhead? To explore the answers to these questions, Bliadski Circus Queelective’s practice does not emerge from a discourse of trauma, but rather from a performance of possibilities. Thereby Queelective queers war discourses, experiences, and representations. The special guest of the evening will be Antonina Romanova – a Ukrainian queer artist and trans soldier – who will connect with Berlin via internet.
In English, Ukrainian with German surtitles
Bliadski Circus Queelektyw is a feminist-queer, Ukrainian-Polish collective.
Our main forms of artistic expression are: cabaret – as a response to turbulent times marked by the war in Ukraine; and queerness – as a space of love, resistance, and subversion, radically challenging bourgeois tastes and patriarchal norms. When the world is falling apart, we want to gather with audiences to search for alternatives together.
Bliadski Circus listens both to everyday street voices and to stories and sounds coming from bombarded Ukrainian cities. It responds to current events, becoming a platform for expressing difficult and often contradictory emotions. We fill the space with feminist content, drag humor, herstories, queer texts, and self-irony.
