opera BABA
The Life and Death of Stana
opera BABA: The life and death of Stana
Concept and music: Karmina Šilec
Performers: KITKA and guests
BABA is inspired by the sworn virgins – the women who, after taking vows of chastity, adopt a man's name and identity, wear men's clothes, do men's work, smoke, drink rakia, play the gusle ... and join the men's world.
The music theatre will draw on anthropological research on this practice to develop a multi-faceted performative form.
