Love Letters: Death Spiral
With: Uýra
What are love letters? What are the possible loves in these worlds? What bodies have the right to feel and to express this feeling? Who still writes and who still gets love letters? Far from answers, performance is a debate, which may turn into active and collective writing, which may recall the importance of love and its expressions.
