I felt a Funeral, in my Brain combines dance, puppetry, wood, and the spoken word to explore identity, matter, and the spaces between the living and the inert.
At the center of the stage, a large pine trunk becomes a house, a refuge, a burden, and a coffin. This object, heavy with time and memory, engages in a dialogue with the performer’s body, which moves it, supports it, and confronts it. It is accompanied by a wooden puppet that functions as an alter ego, a conscience, or an inner voice.
The show offers an intimate journey that reflects on life, death, and the construction of the self, while questioning imposed roles. It creates a space where body, matter, and time converge to generate open-ended questions.
