Endless Medication tells the story of Rosa, a girl who cannot weep. She is made pregnant by the JesusChristMachine and is soon to give birth – through her intestines – to God’s grandson. God appears in the form of a talking bulb and the pregnancy takes on the form of a watermelon growing under Rosa’s skirt. Because the child is developing in Rosa’s intestines it encumbers her metabolism: the watermelon must be cut/aborted. With God’s help Rosa finally gives birth (from her leg) to a little boy who never cries. The story ends with Rosa’s incarceration in a madhouse, an infanticide, and a trial in which Rosa is condemned to endless medication.

The performance is realised in the basic inventive style of fairground theatre. Marijs Boulogne treats the tricks of theatre in a childlike, lucid, but also perverse manner. A scatologic potence is hidden behind the apparent innocence of these two energetic, jolly, carefree girls. As a result of its subject – the conception and birth of the grandson of God, as well as the unforced, self-evident way in which they handle obscenity and violence, engenders a form of religiously-tinted pornography.

Endless Medication is a theatre performance created in 2003 by the Flemish performance artist Marijs Boulogne. After successful and noticed presentation at the City of Women festival in 2005, the association decided to adapt the performance into Slovenian. Premiere took place on 14 May 2006 at Club Channel Zero at Metelkova City. At the Syndicate 2019 Eternal Medication will see its 30th run after a six year-long break.
