Ivan Vazov National Theatre - IN THE DARKLocation: Ivan Vazov NATIONAL THEATRE
Location: Ivan Vazov NATIONAL THEATRE
Address: 5 DYAKON IGNATIY STR., SOFIA 1000 | Event Map | Venue Accessibility ‘You think I’m tellin’ you ‘bout things I’ve seen, but no. All of these are just miracles, this is all just ignorance and if we could see ‘em, they’d transform into visions.’ With a jar of jam and an old suitcase Gichka the Cuckoo, the adopted daughter of the village priest, is alone in the belfry of the church. Her stories are unbelievably funny and offer a passage to a small village and its absurd, but lost world. Her stories are also sad as the trusting nature of a child is incapable of seeing through the veil of evil, even if it is staring it in the face. This is a tale of loneliness for those who are different, of frantic living on the margins of sanity and unconditional love. A life filled with memories and wonder. All of them were kept in a tiny tinder box. Duration: 1h30m Credits: Director: Albena Stavreva Get in touchStatus: Available for local versions and ready for touring How to book?The tickets will be available for purchase shortly. |
