Jouska

He took her body, she his mind

duration of the performance:

He doesn’t remember why… But he did it. A deep, dark rage came out that night, as if he was possessed by the devil himself. He felt a tear run down his cheek, a tear just for him. Warm. Just for him. She was cold. Her eyes were empty. Like she never existed. An empty woman, beautiful how she layed there. Just for him.  

Jouska is a psychological horror play in which you, the viewer get lost in someone’s insane reality. A visual, absurd theatre performance in which director Priscilla ter Voert combines her love for scenography and psychological horror movies. The concept originated from a fascination for trauma repression and what that does to a person. No matter how deep you repress your trauma, it always catches up on you, just like death.
