Gypsy Wheels

How can you break out of a Bulgarian ghetto and start a new life whereas you do not forget where you came from? Nataliya Tsekova, in her play "Gypsy Wheels" recounts the memories of a young Roma woman in order to get rid of them and to "turn white". Can we bury our past? What is it like to hide all life long who we are? The play focuses on accepting ourselves and being proud of our identity, and discusses these issues with the help of humour.

Art makes me fly! - interview with Nataliya Tsekova

Nataliya graduated from the Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Bulgaria as a scolarship student. She had to face several difficulties because of her origin and financial situation. For her, "performing art makes it possible to give voice to her opinion" – that is why she chose acting and this is what helped her to accept her identity. Her play Gypsy Wheels is about people who have been discriminated because of their origin. "No one shall go into hiding, we have to be ourselves and I believe that Roma theatre can make a change."
