Schedule of Events
7pm: Where Are You From, Girl - Starring Lea Mihevc
Where Are You From, Girl is a performance by actress and musician Lea Mihevc that uses music and story-telling to address the question of personal division; the division between two continents, between two places and between two people - between two selves.
The actress performs for the audience, seeks to charm, seduce and entertain them. All while facing questions about her intimate world and what she presents to others. She uses that as a metaphor for the relationship between the meaning of home and living abroad.
With her own voice and through the use of various music genres, she looks for potential openings in the established forms, expectations, even clichés. She juxtaposes a series of dualities, contrasting, connecting and resolving them. She explores what is truly hers and what belongs to others. What it means to simply be (available) - not only as an actor but also as a human being. What it means to truly belong and when, if ever, does the need to belong disappear.
On this journey of self-discovery she digs through different identities in search of herself, her own true voice, her own song, and thus the answer to the question "Where are you from, girl?".
