Arad Chamber Theatre (Romania) - Szegedi Hetek Csoportja: Jean Cocteau: Human Voice - -

23. Thursday 18:00     Chamber Theatre

50'

Loss is said to be like death. All that used to be alive, all those things we used to believe in, suddenly die. In this piece love dies. When a relationship comes to an end, everything dies along with it. A well-organized life dies, together with its system, rules, the air and daily routine. The one who is left behind is deprived of hope, too, though it is hope that could keep you alive. What is it like when all that you thought of as reality is gone? What is death like?
It is also said that in the last moments of our life, we see our most important moments and decisions - we suddenly understand the reality of all the things we were going through. This last moment is life itself: we come to understand in that very moment whether what we have seen makes us happy or it was only a false illusion called life.

Cocteau wrote the play with only one character present. This character is talking, as if talking on the phone. But with whom?
This character is the Woman.
This conversation is that particular last moment.
It is only a moment, yet she tells a whole life, as the stories, the dreams and decisions are outlined. The conversation is a series of marvellous associations, personifications and substitutions as well as a chain of questions never asked before; a struggle for finding the truth. It is like a thriller, and in order to finish it, you must put every element back into its place.
In fact, who is this Woman talking to?

The performance is the third production of Arad Chamber Theatre, a joint production again with Szegedi Hetek Csoportja, directed by Attila Harsányi, who was previously seen in the title role of Rudolf Hess’ Ten Commandments.
