Catharsis

Catharsis (n.; plural: catharses)
purification, cleansing
sudden and intense resolution of (psychological) issues

Catharsis (Greek: κάθαρσις kátharsis) is a term from narratology meaning "emotional purification." It describes the effect of evoking powerful emotions such as sadness, fear, compassion, or even laughter in the audience, who then undergo a purification of these same feelings.

With her unique voice, she immerses the audience in emotions, bringing her deeply-rooted soul music back to its essence. KOVACS makes a triumphant return to Dutch theaters with her latest art project, "CATHARSIS." After an intensive rehabilitation at the beginning of 2023, the talented artist has focused on exploring her "higher powers." This creative process unfolds live on stage, where the audience becomes part of the emotionally purifying experience. For the first time, KOVACS will not only express her art vocally but also physically overwhelm the spectators with her multidisciplinary artistic expression.
