These are short stories by Gábor Reisz, staged by the author. The director’s first involvement with Proton Theatre and with theatre in general. Tiny events from everyday life and their effect on our lives; that is, the essence lies in the detail.
Stories from the night straddling the border of reason. Both rationally and somewhat less rationally. An amusement spot, amusement-seekers, and one who is lost. Plus a chained bicycle. Especially the bicycle, which raises plenty of questions. Whose is it? How long has it been here? And how did it get here, anyway? What is this, after all? A drama, a crime story, perhaps a thriller? For the moment, it is not completely clear – not even for Márton Horváth, who is off to meet his wife, but he will never arrive. He gets swept away by the night’s peculiar dynamics… Can a (long-lost) bicycle turn our life upside down? What does it take to get us off the beaten path? And, ultimately, what is to become of Márton Horváth’s wife?
"Although there is literally no stage in the performance, Reisz has a genuine feeling for the stage. He guides and misdirects the audience’s attention perfectly, mixes the dramaturgical proportions amazingly well, and even gives the audience some short periods to rest. We don’t need to make an effort to follow the plot, but, at the same time, we aren’t bored for a minute." (Zsófia Molnár - Élet és Irodalom)
