Beginning from an eclectic collection of performance moments that other artists and writers have recounted to her from memory, Vlatka Horvat created Third Hand, a piece interested in remembering and recalling, in acts of looking and their relation to narrative, and in the way we turn lived experience into a story.

The new performance, which premiered at Chicago Cultural Center (4-6 June 2019), draws on cabaret and art performance, musical theatre shows, avant-garde classics and kindergarden spectacles.
