The Misunderstanding is one of the fundamental plays of the 20th century, a text more relevant today than ever, because it speaks of loneliness, alienation, the masks we wear as part of our various social roles and particularly the impossibility of authentic communication, especially with the people closest to us. The show becomes valuable through the new accents it emphasises in Camus’ text and is, first and foremost, a radiography of the surface differences that we allow to separate us, despite all the things we profoundly have in common.” (Bobi Pricop)
