GOODBYE, LINDITA
Original concept, Director: Mario Banushi

Experimental Stage for Emerging Artists

Goodbye, Lindita by Mario Babushi

From 29 March to 9 April at Pireos 260 – Stage B

Mario Banushi, a multitalented young artist who brings a personal, handcrafted visual world to the theatre, has been inspired by the history of the Balkans and its burial customs and traditions to create a performance centred on loss. The narrative is structured around a sequence of associated images that link the state of mourning with a new birth. The production is a modern fairy tale, a parable about life after the death of a loved one.

Goodbye, Lindita tells the story of a family and the house where they live, where a series of strange events bring to the surface a hidden world made up of dreams and nightmares, an upside-down reality with its own rules. What needs to happen for the final farewell to take place? How can life go on? What does (this) death mean?
