A man, a woman. Two champions in rhetoric, engaged in a match with only one winner at the end. Eight rounds to convince, to seduce with words and the way of using them. Enthusiasm, strength, emotion, all is fair: it's for you to decide! For this creation, Sanja Mitrovic brought together a series of political speeches which at the time were all about a unifying message of hope. Some were said by staunch democrats, others by actual tyrants. Will you be able to tell the difference? Not necessarily. That's what Speak is all about: stirring up trouble, testing our resilience in the face of persuasion mechanisms and, thereby, increasing our vigilance with respect to a society where la form supersedes content.
