Where do I begin and where do Others end? Is it at the boundaries defined by our bodies? Do Others exist at all?
This is a performance-exploration of boundaries, their nature and their permeability. The boundaries between inside and outside, between visible and invisible, between everyday and sacred. This sensory labyrinth theatre performance is an attempt to tap into the Limitless that can be METAPERSONAL!
This performance is the next step in the biography of the “Sensory Theatre Sofia”
aiming to expand its tools and sphere of influence. It is using the synergy created by the meeting of different creative professions within the creative process.
In METAPERSONAL we explore the possibility of generating new narratives in the interaction between young and established scenographers and the artists from the Sensory theatre team, in the context and space of a building full of unusual possibilities – Cultural House Krasno selo.
In recent years, the work of the “Sensory Theatre Sofia” has been considered the PROCESS of preparation and construction of each subsequent performance to be experienced as equally significant as the performance itself. The Sensory theatre team now sees both as a single whole – a process in which art and life are mixed in such a way that they could hardly be separated anymore. Our art becomes our life, and our life becomes art.
The METAPERSONAL project is undoubtedly the next stage of our journey in this direction. It is a performance about the interplay and synergy between the elements of one collective meta-self (our creative team) that creates and radiates harmony in
a continuous process of creation as natural as breathing. The creative power of this meta-self exceeds imagination and is capable of transforming the underground complex of empty rooms of the Krasno Selo Cultural House into a full-blooded, living world that takes elements of familiar reality and transforms them, as if by a magical kaleidoscope, into an ensemble of fantastic art installations inhabited by extraordinary characters and connected by meta-logic reminiscent of surrealism.
The harmonious interaction and play between the individual elements of this metapersonality provide the energy and inspiration for the realization of a powerful
transformation occurring as much in the outer world as in the inner,
invisible to our ordinary vision. Finally, the two worlds come together in one whole – from total silence, darkness and immobility to the extravaganza of a spectacle that amazes with its creativity and power of impact. This performance is a sign, evidence and a metaphor for the META PERSONALITY of its creator and outlines new
horizons for self-expression and the life = art paradigm. May it be!

What is the sensory theatre?
The sensory labyrinth theatre is an interactive and site-specific performance that directly immerses the audience in what is happening, turns them into the protagonist of the artistic interaction and activates all their senses. The sensory labyrinth theatre is a contemporary creative ritual, an intimate experience and a mystery that takes place as much in the outside world as it does on the screen of your own consciousness.
The project is implemented with the financial support of the Ministry of Culture and the National Culture Fund under the program VRCHKO.
The performance METAPERSONAL is carried out with the cooperation and partnership of our friends from:
Elektrick.me – 3D Mapping and Event Visuals, creators of the visual installations in the performance
Wooden Spoon – bio and organic cosmetics, whose pure essential oils provide the fragrant aroma throughour the installations
