Brainwashed is a dark comedy about growing up in dictatorship. Alina creates absurd reality on stage to explore brainwashing techniques with the audience while sharing her experience living in Belarus under a brutal regime. She sets out to convince you of a lie, establish dominance and feed the audience soup that she’s freshly prepared on stage. It’s silly, bizarre, but also dark and vulnerable.
Trigger warnings: This is a dark comedy based on a personal experience, there will be mentions of death, murder, self-harm, and police brutality. Also partial nudity.
