"A magnificent creative ensemble – director, set designer, composer, excellent actors! One of the leitmotifs – in the world of rational and crude practicality, we also need the IRRATIONAL, carrying self-awareness... How relevant it sounds today!"

"A performance with rich suggestions and emotional energies of theatrical expressive means. 'To the bone' in the performance, directorial inventions seamlessly blended into the scenic visual design, the musical environment, the dedication of the acting ensemble, and the responsibility and mastery of the stage technical team.
