Performance 

Hi, 

my name is Jasna and I would like to invite you to see my performance. It’s my first solo theatrical project and I’m quite excited about it.  

The title of the piece is “this is my truth tell me yours” which is actually a quote of a quote, but the piece itself doesn’t deal with these quotes, it’s more about some of my own “truths”. 

I have been working as a writer and a dramaturg for almost 15 years, but lately I have been thinking about wanting to do something else, because I think art is really fucked up and because art really fucked me up. 

But then I made this piece about how art fucked me up, and I actually realised it’s more of a love-hate relationship between me and art. And I realized I actually often really like art. (Although it also gets on my nerves quite often.) 

Some other topics that I explore in this piece are female orgasm, male masturbation, artistic responsibility and buzzing in the ears. I also mention Konstrakta, Jan Fabre, Oliver Frljić, Xanax and Jesus. 

In short, I would be glad if you would come to the show.  

See you, 

Jasna.
