Madame M. in Moving Station is a powerful personal statement inspired by the story from Holýšov
On Saturday, May 3rd at 7:00 PM, the Moving Station space will present the production Madamme M., which is part of the Liberation Festival program. The performance is based on the discovered story of a concentration camp prisoner in Holýšov in the Domažlice region, Marie-Marguerite Michelin. The creative team does not attempt to reconstruct historical events, but focuses on the inner and personal dimension of the testimony of a woman who crosses the line between life and death, between hopelessness and hope. The theme of the production opens up the contrast between elegance and harsh reality, between the cultural associations of the name “Michelin” and a real human story in the environment of a concentration camp. This creates a stage form that works with imagery, sound, movement and video, and assembles fragments of memory into a sensitive scenic composition. The authors are looking for “imprints of hope that truly never dies” and create a space for personal and collective reflection on historical experience.
