REALITY_chapter1: WELLBEING
2024

Reality show, 4 episodes, 9:02 - 14:04

Four performers represent typical halloween monsters: a ghost, an alien, a vampire, and a witch. These characters experience exclusion from mainstream society, which is characterized by oppression and discrimination, and are therefore forced to live on its periphery. Such characters form a simple metaphor for minority groups (queer, people of different skin colors, etc.). As a result, they sign up for a new reality show, seeing it as an opportunity to win a guaranteed rent coverage for two years.

The core of the project is true improvisation in the moment, based on both improvisational and theoretical preparation. The characters and their traits were individually created by each team member for themselves, while the dynamics between the characters were worked on collectively.

For each episode, the artist and journalist Olga Wawracz wrote a serialized essay in Czech.
