The inspiration for Continuo’s latest production came from observations of everyday life as well as the poems of Antonin Artaud, Sylvia Plath, and Vladimíra Čerepková.
In Cracks, verses of selected poets form an arc of the existential substance of human life, the fatality and lostness of the individual in contemporary society. Dark visions, grotesqueness and vulgarity, provocation and madness burst through the cracks of everyday life as if the earth’s crust had torn open and lava began to flow through the scar, burning everything in its destructive path, only for new plants of unprecedented beauty to grow on it after some time.
