HOLY MONKEY Written by Nelly Winterhalder and Lois Armas Sound designed by Saku Kämäräinen Directed by David Kozma Produced by Post Theatre Collective Commissioned by The Finnish-Norwegian Cultural Institute Part of Together again festival in autumn 2023 ”The pandemics hit the world like a tsunami, with several giant waves. Now, as the catastrophic waves withdraw, we slowly detect the impact that the past years have had on our lives, relations, work, habits, attitudes and values. The writers Lois Armas and Nelly Winterhalder place fictional characters in this post pandemic landscape and explore the emotional impact from a both personal, local and global perspective. The writing process will start from a common fictional frame which then allows each writer to express their artistic voice.” -Nelly Winterhalder The Middle Eastern Bloc podcast, started in 2020, reflects on the global pandemic through the eyes of people belonging to cultural and linguistic minorities (who live outside their birth country). When the first wave of the global pandemic hitted the world in Spring 2020, people were asked to stay home and avoid unnecessary contact except with their close family members. We started to wonder how people residing outside their birth country experience the situation. How people living away from their family coped with the situation. This podcast produced by Post Theatre Collective was part of Together alone 2.0 program in 2022 and this season 3 will be launched at the Together again festival in Autumn 2023, commissioned by The Finnish-Norwegian Cultural Institute. Post Theatre Collective has chosen Norway-based Nelly Winterhalder and Finland-based Lois Armas to be the writers of this season of the podcast. The episodes will be sound designed by Saku Kämäräinen directed by David Kozma.
