ABOUT THE PLAY

"Afterlife party with Evergreen Eve" is a contemporary dance performance where author herself performs , which takes place in a tent for growing plants. Space is limited, the conditions for growth and development are artificial, the environment is safe, the goal is duration. Pinus longa Eva is a type of pine that is one of the longest living organisms on the planet. Our Eva is evergreen, decorative and eternally young in endevour/emergence.
 
She carefully cultivated and preserved herself. From everything. It has the character of a creeper. There is a conflict. And origin. She resembles her future avatar in the digital afterlife. Maybe there is no difference, we don't know. One can smell the sting of a conifer, bristling and alone. In her own will. She likes everything that young people like.
