Why not join us for a reading of a story that is not exactly what it seems at first glance?

This is no ordinary story, this is The Woods, a metaphor-rich reading of a psychological situation, an ambient account of motherhood, love, abandonment, maybe on the brink of mental collapse. We see a woman who wants to care, with what can only be described as tough love, for a foundling child while standing up, more or less, to an enraged son? - a wolf in wolf’s clothing. We root for her. But who is who? In this symbolic fable, which like a child’s story nods to Little Red Riding Hood and like a Greek tragedy to Medea, a powerful image of unwilling motherhood imprints itself on our minds.

Theatre In-Balance is a multilingual theatre company based in Malmö, Sweden, built upon the challenge of gender balance within the performing arts, adapting and re-working techniques from the worlds of mask, puppetry, object theatre through the ©In Balance Method, created by Mariana Araoz.
