ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

SYNOPSIS
Isabella and Oskar are a couple well into middle age but they play together like two children. They make up innocent games that are laced with erotic innuendo. Through these they hope to liberate themselves from their deepest prejudices, commitments and fears. As a result of these games, the relationship surprisingly reveals that creativity and self destruction for them are inseparable. Isabella’s need to find her true identity leads the couple into the world of rites, whose libretto they have written themselves, but which doesn’t turn out to be so innocent—and where love is a deadly weapon
