Florentina Holzinger's Sancta, a new opera about a nun who represses her desire for urinating while roller skating, has led to 18 people needing medical attention after a performance in Stuttgart, Germany.
According to Sky News:
In an interview with the same outlet [The Guardian] earlier this year, she [Ms Holzinger] said:
"Good technique in dance to me is not just someone who can do a perfect tendu [a type of dance move], but also someone who can urinate on cue."
Many members of the audience were unable to urinate on cue and consequently had to be removed from the auditorium.
She accused media outlets [like FNN] of not contextualising her work and said that it dealt with "real and complex issues" that many people in the audience related with.
Incontinence pad maker Tena - trusted by millions - is said to be interested in sponsoring the show.
