Inspired by «La Mère» by St.I. Witkiewicz 

Matka carries the audience into a perfectly organized madness. Surrounded by her son and strange unsettling creatures, this woman sways between purity and monstrosity in the middle of  furniture and mirrors, which move like magic on stage.
Both clear-headed and bizarre, this creation attires itself with the most unusual beauty, leaving the spectator completely stunned.
In this disorienting debauchery, the director Elizabeth Czerczuk reveals a powerful and surprising creation. She follows that way the multidisciplinary tradition of a still little known theatre: the Polish theatre.
Witkiewicz is a charismatic figure of the Polish theatre, who also was a explorer, a daring experimenter, a nihilist, a comedian, a novelist, a painter and a playwright. Kantor considered him as one of his masters and his profoundly ironic theatre has not lost anything of its funniness and its intensity. Matka is an electric play, of which Witkiewicz said that it was "undervoltage", and we regret that this kind of theatre is not staged more often.
