The door is a show full of young energy, an experiment created and conceived in the free spirit of independent theatre. Starting from the idea of breaking the fourth wall, the clown Bruno constantly interacts with the audience, integrating them into the story. The absurdity of the text is reinforced by the actors’ performance, through vivid, team-built situations, spontaneous actions, and games, defying the “small truth.” Ușa speaks about life, death, youth, old age, and freedom.
Four people.
Four stories.
One waiting room.
Where are they coming from and where are they heading to? Life, unknown, death. How can FEAR influence the human perspective and how does the individual react in front of an unknown force?
Four people arrive in a seemingly empty space. All clean and white. It can be a hospital, a bughouse or even the purgatory itself. How does the waiting room change them and, more importantly, will they find the courage to enter the DOOR or not?
