ANIOŁ ZAGŁADY
A reinterpretation for the stage of Luis Buñuel's 1962 black comedy, The Exterminating Angel. The beginning is banal: an elite company of guests at a fancy dinner party is suddenly unable to leave their host's salon. Their mysterious, almost absurd inability to cross the threshold gradually makes them participants in a terrifiying social experiment that exposes mechanisms of power, symbolic violence, and societal collapse. Logic, convention, and security are eroded and crumble in the stuffy, cramped space the characters are unable to escape. . The production is directed by Data Tavadze — an acclaimed Georgian director and author known for his daring, politically engaged theatre. His work often addresses themes of freedom, oppression, identity, and social transformation, combining classical texts with new approaches and incisive social commentary. In his original interpretation, The Exterminating Angel becomes a story about a society trapped by its own privilege, incapable of acting outside of conventional scripts and dominant power structures.
