WE” is either performance or not. Puppet theatre, visual performance, contemporary dance, and physical theatre go together in this art piece. “WE” is based on the novel by Evgeny Zamyatin. The creators see many events of our time in that book, especially according to the Russian political situation: from the fall of the Berlin Wall to the “Moscow protests”.

I, D-503, the builder of the Integral, I am only one of the many mathematicians of the United State. My pen, which is accustomed to figures, is unable to express the march.and rhythm of consonance; therefore I shall try to record only the things I see, the things I think, or, to be more exact, the things we think. Yes, "we"; that is exactly what I mean, and We, therefore, shall be the title of my records.
The performance tells the story of D-503 and I-330, men and women living in the United State. It’s a totalitarian country that captured the world after the global war.

«WE» is a manifesto. It isn’t only political, but also artistic. This is a performance about fear. This is a performance about relationships. This is a performance about the future.
