    Bad Roads

    A modern play that has already become a living classic. It is one of the first statements about the war in Eastern Ukraine on a major theatrical stage. Playwright Natalia Vorozhbyt wrote it by collecting stories and testimonies from real people for the script of the film Cyborgs. Bad Roads is six stories about relationships between women and men, sharpened and distorted by war. A young woman travels to Eastern Ukraine in search of documentary material about the war, but there, in the gray zone of the borderlands, she becomes a hostage of both her own and others' stories. She lives them as if in a funhouse mirror, where there is no longer good and evil, where victim and perpetrator swap roles, and where love becomes fleeting and elusive. The play was first staged at the Royal Court Theatre in London in October 2017. The Ukrainian premiere took place on September 27, 2018, at Stage 6. The premiere at the Kyiv Academic Theatre of Drama and Comedy on the Left Bank of the Dnieper was on May 17, 2019. "A ruthless look at how war dehumanizes people" — The Independent. "A powerful play… A metaphor for the difficult emotional paths that women take during war. Vorozhbyt becomes the Ukrainian Sarah Kane" — The Guardian.
