Mužné nevěsty

Description

From Lilith to Fatima to you and me. From ancient times to today. We will tell and sing – about slaves and princesses, about prophetesses, skilled women, and so-called wallflowers. In this program, we combine folk tales, songs, and very personal stories. Stories ranging from mythology to everyday life – all equally true. And at the same time, we turn the order around. Brave… Because they are like men? Brides… Because they know nothing? Really? We will see. For this meeting, bring one name. The name of a woman who is important to you for some reason. The rest will simply happen. Katarzyna Jackowska-Enemuo is a Polish storyteller, cultural anthropologist, musician, composer, and writer.
