MOTHER, I LOST MY HAND!

Teenage is the time we start to seek our place and sense in this world. More often than not, this search for one’s own identity means confronting essential, sometimes hurtful experiences.
Alexandru Mâzgăreanu proposes a performance full of energy and sensitivity regarding anxieties of this age. Mașka, the main character, is a teenager confronting social and family pressure by escaping, from time to time, in an imaginary world populated with superheroes. Like any teenager, Mașka feels the need to assert herself, to define her identity, but at the same time she yearns for acceptance in the group and she copies others. She wants to be the best, to have extraordinary achievements, to be memorable, so as to be cherished by her friends and her family.
Mother, I Lost My Hand! – a performance regarding teenage challenges and ageless self-respect.
