Play Fera returns for new season at Teatro Firjan Sesi Centro
The monologue Fera, conceived and performed by actress Carolina Ferman, is returning for a short season at Teatro Firjan Sesi Centro from November 23 to December 8. Directed by Natasha Corbelino, the play is loosely inspired by the book “The Eye of the Crocodile” by Australian philosopher Val Plumwood.
The performance recounts a real 1985 incident in which Plumwood was attacked by a crocodile while canoeing in Australia. The play uses this near-death experience to explore human vulnerability, the fragility of life in the face of nature, the environmental crisis, and the relationship between the body and technology.
