Maria - a Play by Neféli


A dance-theatre piece that explores Mary Magdalene's misused and conflated identity. The sum of vague references in the Bible, as well as a blatant decision to confound all other Marys mentioned, resulted in multiple versions of Mary of Magdala’s story: none of them true. Maria explores the iconic symbol and vital half of the ever-relevant Madonna/Wh*re trope that has defined and dictated femininity. Sex worker, devoted wife, holy disciple or completely out of her mind?
