WOMAN AT POINT ZERO Comes to Opera Ballet Vlaanderen This Month
Performances run 21-28 April.
By: Stephi Wild Apr. 03, 2023
Composer Bushra El-Turk, director Laila Soliman, writer Stacy Hardy and filmmaker Aida Elkashef turn this universal story of exploitation, sacrifice and an unending quest for freedom into a gripping multimedia production. By interweaving different creative insights and challenging prevailing conventions, they reinvent opera as a powerful voice for a new wave of feminism across borders.
Lyrical poetry and genre-defying music are intertwined with compelling testimonies of contemporary women who have committed similar crimes. As a contemporary chorus of female voices - once brutal, damaged and ashamed - they now claim their stories with wry humour, tender intimacy and savage freedom.
