Lea Moro - Six sisters

In Six Sisters, three people meet at work and at the same time in their shared living room. The three talk to themselves, to each other and to the audience. They tie knot after knot, dreaming of the future, pondering happiness, despair and hope. Their knotting movements are supported by a fabric from Chekhov's Three Sisters (1901) and an open audio description.

The performers Lau, Emmilou and Duc take on the thoughts, feelings and actions of the Three Sisters Irina, Olga and Masha as well as the brothers and husbands. They thus negotiate a variety of affects and dimensions of human relationships.

Lea Moro combines the search for an elsewhere and the examination of meaning and labour from Chekhov's classic work with the question of a possible community in the sense of sisterhood.

An open audio description (AD) can be heard by everyone in the audience. In the play Six Sisters, the AD is spoken by the three performers Lau, Duc and Emmilou and is therefore an integral part of the stage action as well as an artistic tool.
