Gistri Human Theatre: Out of the Box

"Out of the Box" invites you into a surreal, grotesque ritual where Norah awakens trapped inside a trunk, confronting the "God Lords"—an audience that watches, judges, and decides her fate. To be chosen, she learns to obey, adapt, and stay within the rules. Yet her body rebels, her voice cracks, challenging the very obedience imposed upon her.

This performance explores themes of control, conformity, and the struggle to unlearn obedience through a clumsy, visceral journey. Experience an evocative ritual that blurs boundaries between performer and spectator in an unforgettable theatrical encounter.

Join us for an intense exploration of power and resistance that will leave you questioning the roles we play and the rules we follow.
