The play tells the story of a couple finding themselves unable to reconnect. He and She – an ordinary couple, sharing dreams, ideals, and insecurities – walk into an isolated house on the seashore, with the purpose of rediscovering themselves. What awaits them is a terrifying loneliness and the daunting feeling that She is haunted by something. Perhaps even the certainty that Someone is going to come. The play looks for its essence through mystery and suspense. A theatre of silence, a story about (no) communication.
