"Truth" exposes a lack thereof: an existence fraught with the absence of the sacred, devoid of any mystery, purpose or metaphysical worth. While the main character of "Truth" is not present, the scene is preoccupied with striving for knowledge and new creation, as well as by aggression, survival instinct and usurpation that claims a monopoly on truth. What are the sources of our cultural traditions? Haven't we denied many established facts that guide us further towards answers on how to live and why? The performance draws from the original texts of the ecumenical councils, the narratives of the Gospels and the Grand Inquisitor poetry inside Dostoevsky's "The Brothers Karamazov."
Truth /Poland/ play, talkback, afterparty/. Conceived and directed by: Piotr Borowski. Cast: Gianna Benvenuto, Magda Czarny, Michal Lorent. Presented by: Studium Teatralne, Polish Cultural Institute New York. Running time: 60min.
