The play has been performed under various adaptations given that it touches on the eternal theme of relationships. Unlike previous ones, this time the director tries to approach it from a perspective rooted in realism and interspersed with absurdity. "There is no absolute in life because anything is possible,"he explained.
What is especially impressive is the way the director manages to provide an intense and immersive experience in such a limited space. Audience will be able to witness raining scenarios indoors, which is unprecedented in a small- theater productions.
