Fearless Love Eve Adams — H. Modrzejewska National Old Theatre

In 1912, 19-year-old Chawa Złoczewer left Mława and went to New York. She was supposed to be a seamstress, but soon became an activist in the anarchist movement and an important figure in the artistic and queer community. She changed her name to Eve — Eve Kotchever, and later Eve Adams. He distributes radical magazines, sets up lesbian venues in Chicago and New York, writes and publishes his own first book on female love, Lesbian Love.

This activity brings thunder to her and causes her to be expelled from the US. She dies in Auschwitz, and the memory of her courageous life is erased for many years. The show seeks to reconstruct this incredible biography by portraying the complex identity of the heroine. Poland — although when she was born, Poland was not on the map; Jewish — which became the cause of her death; anarchist — through which she attracted the suspicion of the authorities; queer — for which she was stigmatized and condemned; and perhaps even the identity of a stateless immigrant — who was not protected by any laws, so she was sent back to Europe. Although she was not afraid to seek happiness, she knew many cities and languages, there was no place for her anywhere.

The creators of the show ask questions about the relationship between the private and the political. What in the community is necessary for a sense of security? What does the term “illegal” mean to us today? And finally, how, being so diverse, can we still feel “co-responsible” for each other?

Tobacco smoke is used in the performance.
