Three very good friends haven't seen each other in a very long time. Brought together by an unexpected event, Beatrice, Dora and Tania go on an adventurous road trip together. On the way they try to answer essential questions like: What is the age limit for body glitter? How do you change a tire on your car at night in the woods while having an existential crisis? Can a friendship be resumed after years of break and distance?
"ROAD TRIP" is a story of friendship behind the wheel. It's a play with women, about women and more, for everyone (16+). It tackles issues that millennial women face, talks about what concerns us, what we like, what annoys us, what makes us feel vulnerable, what makes us laugh and treats the world around more or less seriously.
The research started with a series of questions: How can you develop the feeling of female solidarity, especially if you didn't grow up in an environment that nurtured it?, What are the power dynamics within a friendship and what are the reasons for which this kind of relationship can develop or stop? How can we relate to internalized misogyny?, What imprint does trauma leave on our inner life and how is it reflected in outward behaviors?, How do you learn a healthy portion of self-care, self-love and self-confidence?
"ROAD TRIP" is a theater play that is part of the "La Feminin" project and has its first public reading in Timișoara. The reading show is hosted by HEI - House of European Institutes, the text is written by Andreea Tănase and read by Adriana Bordeanu, Ana Turos and Andreea Tănase.
