It’s hard to imagine a show about patriarchal violence this inspiring – but trust us, you will leave the theatre punching the air and utterly invigorated.
Carolina Bianchi is internationally acclaimed for her powerful stage presence and brutal eloquence. With The Brotherhood, Bianchi explores masculinity as a brotherhood that renders men untouchable, part of a system that perpetuates violence against women, yet still provokes admiration in art history. She uses the theatre world as subject, language, and apparatus, exposing the faux progressivism that gives intellectual masculinity free rein as an exclusionary mechanism. The play portrays an aversion to, but also fascination with male power dynamics, and how to navigate them as a woman.
