I SING THE BODY ELECTRIC. Marta Górnicka in conversation with Justyna Stasiowska

Summary/Abstract: Marta Górnicka speaks of her concept of a chorus of individuals in Chorus of Women and Requiemmachine. She calls the language applied in her plays speech cleansed of psychological content, recalling the sound of a computer or machine. The director speaks of the process of creating the chorus and the work on creating a new actor/performer through training during rehearsal. Górnicka also speaks of the process by which the libretti for her plays were created, emphasizing that the dramaturgy always emerges from the subject she chooses. She also repeats that the dismemberment of language in her plays is primarily meant to mobilize their critical dimension.
