Synopsis: | "Sajtinac was in West Yorkshire for only three days, though that was enough time to notice "the way it rains in that boring way it does". His point is that for the generation who grew up under communism, then went through the war, Huddersfield - even in the rain - seems a distant realm of infinite promise. Set in the obscure Serbian town of Zrenjarin, the play commemorates a beer-and-spliff-fuelled reunion of a group of former school friends coming to terms with turning 30. Rasha, possessor of a dark and dangerous intellect, lives in a sty and behaves like a pig. Even the toilet door has fallen prey to his drunken father's haphazard asset-stripping. Downstairs, his friend Ivan is a damaged poet who is in and out of mental institutions. And Igor, who left to make a new life in England, is back home to intensify their sense of self-loathing.

Synopsis: | Robinson Crusoe, an English adventurer, finds himself the only survivor of a shipwreck on an island off the coast of Trinidad. Crusoe must find a way to survive on the island and overcome his fear of solitude. Life on a Desert Island is more than just the story of the adventures of a bearded man stranded on an island; it is also a spectacle about civilization. In his adventure in the wilderness, he follows the path from gatherer of plants, to hunter, to farmer and to craftsman. You will see skills that Crusoe conquers: how to identify edible plants, how to make a shelter, a bow and arrow, a net, a trap, how to plant crops, and how to make a boat. The play is truly an adventure that addresses the eternal questions: how does one overcome silence, loneliness, fear, and how does one become a persevering and responsible person? Life on a Desert Island is a guide about surviving the wilderness and unity with the environmentand a timely reminder of how perilous life can be and how resourceful we can become in the face of adversity | |||||
