SYNOPSIS

[The show is only for people 18 and older. It contains scenes of nudity, sex, and sexual assault.]

 

***

 

Immoral stories is a modern treaty consisting of three autonomous parts, that puts forward a question if nowadays sexuality is a space of freedom or enslavement.

 

I

Merciful God led his finger across the world and named everything; family, home, and the world, and in it ten (up to fifteen) clear rules about how to be happy in said world, and how to say goodbye to the sins of this world, oh, what a beautiful world.

 

II

We present a story about people that can do whatever they want, for whom the greatest game, the highest rule is to break the rules, to evade bans, to test limitations. It is a story, in which you can’t really get pleasure, you MUST get it, and the bills are paid by someone else, because this world is beautiful, oh, so beautiful.

 

III

We present a story, in which the world begins anew, where there is no place for violence and hurt. Every person is on their own, even when it comes to physical pleasure, or maybe especially when it comes to it. The Sun raises by itself and sets by itself, this world is beautiful, oh, so beautiful.

 

This is a story about a house and a family, about theatre, about nature. The authors of the script, Weronika Murek and Jakub Skrzywanek, were inspired by Walerian Borowczyk’s movies, a transcript from the court case of California vs. Roman Raymond Polański from March 1997, and documents regarding modern-day fetishes.

 

What are pictures presenting sex for us today, in a country where the only widely accepted place for a conversation about it, is a confessional?

 

***

The show uses strobe lighting (a light pulsating with a high frequency) and stage smoke. People sensitive to these kinds of effects are asked to be particularly careful.
