Triple honors for Brazilian writer and director Carolina Bianchi and her company Cara de Cavalo! Her creation, The Cadela Força Chapter I: The Bride and the Goodnight Cinderella, was selected by both the Dutch and Flemish Theater Festivals (the highest accolades for theater makers in the Low Countries). In addition, Carolina Bianchi has been nominated in the Netherlands for a Theo d'Or for the most groundbreaking stage performance.
KVS is bijzonder trots dat wij Carolina al een hele poos op de voet volgen en ondersteunen bij haar werk. En kijkt halsreikend uit naar het tweede deel van de Cadela Força trilogie – The Brotherhood, dat volgend jaar in KVS in première gaat tijdens Kunstenfestivaldesarts 2025.
"Bianchi succeeds in creating a performance that exposes the deeply rooted systemic violence against women with overwhelming images, excellent research, pumping beats, and powerful literary texts." – from the Flemish jury report
"The Power of the Bitch, as the title translates, delivers impressive, overwhelming, and uncanny theater. Midway through the performance, Bianchi announces that she will take a cocktail laced with a date rape drug and slowly slips into unconsciousness. This is followed by a bad trip enacted by dancers and performers." – from the Dutch jury report
