Det Blinde Teater - Blind Theatre is a collaboration between five theatre authors and the media artist Ståle Stenslie, engaging in the exploration of new ways to stage dramatic texts: Individually guided through the theatre, the audience steps into the author’s electronically programmed skin and experience intimate portraits of five women. A sensual and disturbing monologue whispered into the audience ear displayed in a living body suit.
