F.A.L. is an attempt to dramatize poems. Telling poems without a context may be a most challenging task. We try to find starting points from biographical facts and family relations to interpret Levente’s poems. An experiment out of our high spirits and spare time.
The performance is based on the young poet Arnold Levente Farkas’ poems (from Oradea, Romania) and the performers’ own texts. It premiered in March 2009 at Deszka Fesztivál in Debrecen. The Grandchildren’s Theatre is a theatrical community, which collaborated to create F.A.L. Their means of expression is acting, while their goal is LIFE itself.
”F.A.L. – a vertical resting place. Or whatever…Two actors, two walls, chalk, illustrations and signs on the wall. As soon as we find our places, the elements of this space start to dance with hot models, pantomime and cigarette smoke. We can have a look into one of our folks, Arnold Levente Farkas’ mind where eroticism, elements of the Christian and pagan beliefs and childhood and present memories collide. We can watch the images of the poems filtered by the interpreters. ’I can’t see the sky for the devil and the monitor’ – there is no need to think, let’s relax and enjoy the surreal experience.” (László Blanár)
