The project The Eumenides is presented for the first time to the Croatian public in the space of the Museo Lapidarium.

Alone on stage, the figure of the artist in a costume repeating the model of the antique drapery emerges from darkness, lit only by the dramatic chiaroscuro of the spotlights. The stage lighting and other props are reduced to a functional minimum. On a relatively empty, stripped scene, almost without props, there is just the figure of the performer, alone. Lala Raščić presents her narrative performance as a form of political speech and a kind of one-man, or better, a one-woman show, directing her attention to the observer, addressing the public with gaze, movement, voice and gesture.
