Performance in Romanian with English surtitles
We welcome the audience to a performance about how work was done and how love was shown within Romania of the 70s. For some, it may be a nostalgic comedy and for others, a fresh show, looking back with humor and detachment. Either way, the actors are impressive and deserve to be seen play for the way they have put up with the challenge.
