This is a journey between past and future, between memory and imagination. It stems from an attempt to understand the legacy left by parents and ancestors through writing. It is the story of a poet who has crossed different eras to arrive at this stage. In writing, the author draws away from loved ones, betraying beliefs and memories, tearing everything down until only thought remains etched within. He imagines a book lost in a shipwreck, perhaps destroyed by a child, whose words remain alive inside. Amidst the ghosts and lies of the imagination, a deep and personal truth is found. In the end, he surrenders to the audience: skin, words and love — becoming the actor in his own story.

 

Please be advised that this show features smoking on stage.
