The Popess

T1319923073
In The Popess, Elena Mazzon unravels the mystery of a true, early feminist movement in the misogynistic Italian religious history. Little is known about these two mystics, yet their contribution to empower women and encourage their voice to be heard, brought them to demonisation and persecution. Mazzon's new solo dark comedy investigates the discrepancies between religion and faith with a well-articulated, fast paced, and witty style. Its thought-provoking ideas will keep you questioning the connection between institutionalised religion and power, and ultimately the real meaning of freedom.
