3 Dances to Beckett is an attempt to listen to the author. I tried to place Act Without Words I, Act Without Words II and Come and Go, three works by Samuel Beckett, into the same world and connect them through the signs and the common objects. The performance is an orchestration of the worthless, of a world continuously collapsing, it is a descent on the slope of collapse, which has become a natural attitude towards life.
The characters are urban clowns, the illustrations of humans become objects, who have lost their functions and personalities. On this heap of rubbish does the delusion of the Garden of Eden, the illusion of escape, the chance for an exit appear. Where hope rises, a plunge is more serious. The disintegrating universe is always reborn in the same form, like a perpetuum mobile of our life.
(Vava Ştefănescu)
