About
'Gorgon Syndrome' is a piece of physical theatre blending ritual, original music and sign language, part of the VOILA! Festival. It was devised and directed by Tatsiana Popova, Yana Alekseenko, Alana Ivory and Nadzeya Sheibak, and performed by them alongside Nela Agrenich and Sonia Rosa. Four women tell real stories of violence — a journalist, a wife, a stripper and a witness — while the figure of Medusa draws out the truths they are too afraid to tell themselves. Drawing on the myth of Medusa, the performance explores how sexual trauma settles in the body, reshapes everyday life and survives in silence, until trauma at last finds its voice.
