“ Mayfly - byť či nebyť “

One man - one stage - one life

Tragedy comedy (slapstick, clown, pantomime)

for teenagers and adults

Duration 90 minutes, no break, non-verbal

Directed by Maike Jansen

Comprehensive, haunting, humorous. A 24-hour biography that packs a punch. In a mixture of slapstick, clowning, pantomime and acting, pohyb's and the like allow the audience to immerse themselves in a world beyond language, about failure and success, dreams and reality and the race with and against time - non-verbal theater not entirely without language.

The use of the word in the Slovak language directs the focus to non-verbal communication and allows the "foreignness" to be experienced.

The courageous flight of the mayfly "Mucha", her big dream of conquering the world of the stage, ends abruptly with an early fall. The story seems to be over as soon as it begins. But expectations fail and success comes through the back door. While the clock promises the near end, the mayfly discovers the here and now: stage, audience. First, stammering with stage fright, she develops into a great actor before the eyes of the audience.

She conquers his heart with her game, so that when the ticking stops, she goes through the most important stages of her life again....
