Date of the opening: february 13, 2025
Words alone are not enough to express the pain of suffering, miracles, great happiness or joy. They always end up sounding like clichés.
Fosse says at a certain point that to write is equivalent to praying. What helps us in our daily lives, or in survival, is knowing that we are heading from darkness towards the light. There is so much in that darkness; even the things we don't understand and all the blind alleys we get into throughout our lives. Physically we all disappear, the question is whether we have faith in Resurrection or not.
I dedicate this production to the memory of my wife, Tekla Tordai.
