Catherine Lord

    Katarína Veľká bola najznámejšou a najdlhšie vládnucou panovníčkou v ruských dejinách. Jej vláda, nazývaná Katarínska éra, je považovaná za zlatý vek Ruska. Počas jej panovania Rusko prosperovalo, rástlo a stalo sa jednou z popredných európskych mocností. Bola osvietenou panovníčkou, korešpondovala s Voltaireom a sama písala operné librety. Katarína podporovala vedu a umenie a založila prvú štátnu inštitúciu vyššieho vzdelania pre ženy v Európe.

      Catherine Lord's journey through breast cancer treatment transforms into a bold exploration of identity and societal stigma. Adopting the persona of Her Baldness, she engages with her audience through humor and candidness, addressing the shame and fear associated with her diagnosis. As she navigates the challenges of chemotherapy and the resulting isolation, her alter ego confronts the prejudices faced by bald women and middle-aged lesbians with life-threatening illnesses, creating a powerful commentary on resilience and self-acceptance.
