Maja Staśko

Three actresses tell stories about the slut from the prefab building; the old, ugly, or pregnant woman on the bus (whichever you prefer); the student who can't afford a room.



Women with each other, against each other, among each other, about each other; food trucks and emancipation; Barbie makes a career and women make trash; mothers, daughters, friends, well-behaved, hard-working, sad, snooty, funny, and harassed.


In this series of scenes, Polish author and women's rights activist Maja Staśko depicts women whom people encounter daily, or perhaps not, or who encounter themselves. A show for three actresses with an exuberant sense of acting – touching, funny, and provocative.
