Immaculata
Immaculata
Immaculata is searching for meaning in wounds that can never heal. Mary, mother of Jesus, tries to remember some of the words, faces and parts of the story regarding her son’s death. By remembering these deeply disturbing events, Mary boldly challenges all great and sacred ideas. In fact, these questionings are the way how she kept them. Because ideas die, if they are not challenged. Immaculata is a woman that has been many times misused and miscoined into an image, a dogma, an instrument of faith. It is the confession of a woman, erased from history, and turned into an image to serve the establishment of a violent religion.
Performance emerged from ideas of one of the most eminent theatre directors and internationally renowed theatre visionar Tomaž Pandur, that was awarded numerous times abroad and at home. In collaboaration with eminent actress Nataša Matjašec Rošker, they developed a concept for the play Immaculata. Immaculata made it to the stage even though it was surrounded by tragic cricumstances of director’s sudden death. His clear vision was presented just before his passing, which allowed actress Nataša Matjašec Rošker and his sister, dramaturg Livija Pandur, to finish this ambitious project. Their perspective elevated original concept and created timeless performance that already impressed global audiences.
