Young people take the stage and address their elders, who have always told them what they can and cannot do. The kids are taught about freedom provided they remain quiet. This time, the adults will stay silent, „because when children speak, adults listen.“
Lil Drama is a theatre project with teenagers directed by Peter Gonda. Since October 2024, Gonda and his team have worked with a group of young participants to explore themes of oppression, violence, and resistance. The result is not a play for children, but a performance by children for adults. Lil Drama is a series of experiments - an effort to understand the world, reflect on it, change it, and, when necessary, negate it.
Finger guns can kill. AI can suffer. Puppets are murdered. Stage-slap punches become playful yet terrifying tools of escalating violence. „Capitalism is that kind of slime they sell in a glittering pink tube marked „limited edition“, but when you open it, it reeks like chemicals and scorches your desk.“
