Women's Stage
non-spoiling reading*
*all-night marathon without angels and devils*
*gyno-goddesses in everyday giving words life and taking it away*
*women (professionals/experts (colleagues (mothers/daughters (lovers /Medusas
(…))) friends)) amateurs) women - who hate neverending parentheses in their own
multiple existence*
Apokalipsa Reading: Apokalipsa journal
in collaboration with Drustvo SKUC will host roughly 20 women poets and
writers. In addition, Apokalipsa will present their gender issues (72/2003 and
78-80/2004), which focussed on the topic of social gender. The central theme of
the next gender issue (2005) will be female writing and feminist epistemology.
The goal of this poetry-prose marathon is to establish
connections with the audience and also with the connective words among
individual artists. There is no fear of lack of interesting costumes,
accompanying video projections, bodies and faces on stage. With the
expressiveness of our own texts we intend to hit at least the margin of a
performance, with the goal of connecting women's literary writing in Slovenia
with the rich media content of the upcoming week of the City of Women festival.
This is the second year Društvo ŠKUC has continued its evening of readings by
female authors. Hopefully, the popular belief that there are only a few female
writers in Slovenia will prove false once again.
Each author will have 15 minutes of our collective power. A
strict time 'harmonogram' with a list of individual performances will be
available at the scene of the event. Reasonably priced books and magazines will
also be available.
