Be successful. Be productive. Work on yourself. Think positively. And most importantly, smile. But what happens when we put so much on ourselves that we simply can't take it anymore?
An energetic, visually striking and thoroughly ironic dance ride awaits you about a world in which we are supposed to be the best version of ourselves – ideally all the time. Jana Burkiewiczová, with humor and exaggeration, tackles toxic positivity, perfectionism, fear of failure and burnout. And because the right recipe for success is obviously not enough, she also adds a recipe for perfect Slovak halushi. The result is a performance that can make you laugh, make you a little insecure and quite possibly make you think about how much we actually carry on our backs every day.
How much…
