Staged for the first time in Cyprus

 

It sucks your blood under your skin like a vulture. That’s not pleasure, it is delirium, pain, beastly madness.

A rarely performed and exceptionally bold play by Ferdinand Bruckner, written in 1926, is staged for the first time in Cyprus. Aliki Danezi-Knutsen and her associates shed light on the ambiance of an entire era, exposing the milieu within which the characters explore their subconscious and are thereby led to extreme behaviours. The music, composed specifically for the play by Monika, is performed live on stage. A prominent group of actors includes THOC award recipients, Andreas Tselepos and Niovi Charalambous.

 

The performance is not suitable for underage spectators.
