ABOUT THE PLAY

They say everything in life happens with a reason. We decided to check whether this was really true. So we set out on a journey, a life’s journey. First some people came and we knew right away that their part was to stay here, with us. And then along came Veljko, the hero of our performance.

Veljko was both good and a bit ‘naughty’, both serious and playful, both smart and a bit ‘stupid’, both shy and courageous, both black and white, like each and every one of us. So why exactly a hero then? Because by birth we all get to be heroes who fight trouble, celebrate success, moan losses, are merry, kiss and hug, suffer and are sick, dance and love and walk the path full of obstacles and challenges, the path called Life.

Sometimes things happen to us that seem terrible, painful and unfair but then we realize that without mastering those obstacles we would never know who we really were and what our purpose in this world was. The black and white we gradually paint red, the colour that gives us life, energy, grit, power and shine and which circulates our body for it is our inner engine.   So, on our path which is already getting quite red, we cherish every moment, we take what is given to us, we breathe deeply and travel unburdened, happily, with a reason.
