Winners are self-confident. Winners are passionate. Winners value themselves. Winners know what they want and how to get it. Winners never quit. Winners are disciplined. Winners don’t wait for perfect conditions. Winners know that the greatest risk is to not take risk. Winners only compare themselves to themselves. Winners don’t need anyone’s approval. Winners are healthy and eat healthfully. Winners are well-built and have fine, firm and round behinds. Winners have partners. Winners have sex. Passionate sex. Lots of it. Lots of friends. Winners are loved. Winners love life. And love loves them. Winners are not many. Winners are very few. Winners win. 
Victoria sails between the common topics that occupy us all the time and deals with them in a way that is thorough, surprising and entertaining. The means of performance, ranging widely from rather abstract to the mercilessly concrete, borrow from different genres – from a lecture-demonstration to a witty puppet, object and drama show supported with a video screening, to the preparation and consummation of a heath drink. 
The performance, a collective act of a group, is a part of a wider two-year project Izštekani/Unplugged.
