About Cadela Força

In 2023, Carolina Bianchi launched Cadela Força (Bitch Strength), a trilogy on femicide, with her collective Cara de Cavalo. The first part, Chapter 1: The Bride And The Good Night, Cinderella, co-produced with Frascati Producties, premiered in Avignon and made a strong impact. It was nominated for a Theo d’Or and selected for the Official Jury Selection of the Dutch Theatre Jury.

Chapter II: The Brotherhood

In September, Carolina Bianchi will conduct research for the second part of the trilogy during a residency at Frascati Productions. This part will delve into the complexity of 'masculinity pacts'. She will investigate the origins of brotherhood between men and their violent mutual codes that perpetuate rape and sexual violence as part of their vocabulary.

Carolina uses principles from contemporary theatre to articulate possible paths for this discussion. She creates a dialogue between dramaturgy and trauma, autobiography, possession and radical poetry, and the origins of misogyny and sexuality in crisis. The performance will premiere in May 2025 during the Kunstenfestivaldesarts in Brussels.
