(Un) Holy Blood at by Lidija Šola | St. Lukes
Circus Factory member Lidija Šola presents (Un)Holy Blood, Saturday 6th May 2023 | Show 9pm
An armless saint.
A feminist church.
A power-hungry priestess.
Lasanta is attempting something no one has done before – summon Saint Lirio back to earth. But the broken souls of the oppressed have other ideas.
A transdisciplinary performance highlighting the pitfalls of organised religion and challenging the ways we engage in feminism, (Un)Holy Blood is a subversive blend of contemporary circus, theatre, dance and visual art.
May She come.
