Description
Two years ago, during the pandemic, one of the most influential European philosophers Mladen Dolar took the stage and performed a theatre essay titled Virus. He playfully tackled the most well-worn-out 'viral' theme of our time. Through historical, linguistic and literary wormholes he shed light on the then situation from hitherto unimagined perspectives. In addition, musical, theatrical and lexical references were imaginatively illuminated by the actor Blaž Šef. Dolar and Šef return to stage with an essay on rumours, gossip and related matters.
