“The performance, which takes shape at rehearsals at a speed and intensity higher than what I am normally used to, brings to light, as beloved friend Biță Banu would say, “the Shakespearean night, the political night, the night of murder and madness, the night of excess, of criminal excess, of sexual excess and much more…”

„A world that the author almost photographed, like a document of its times. Yet, the minute and profound report is not only political and social. It is another mirror of the soul (the Bard’s constant theme) and stresses new, shocking aspects of the reasons which caused the disaster, not only on individual level, but of the whole country in ruin. And now, a new, intriguingly modern and incredibly true world is brought to light on stage at Bulandra Theatre, right in front of our bewildered eyes.” (Andrei Şerban)
