About
Theater Arti completes Şiddet Üçlemesi with “The Pencil”!
With the performance on the treadmill, players who sweat for 55 minutes, focusing on violence against thought, asks the following questions: How effective are our individual wishes and desires in our social existence? What kind of auto-censorship do we apply to ourselves while telling and applying our thoughts? Does accepting require ‘becoming the same’? Does auto-censor destroy an individual? Can these thoughts make us go insane?
