Ferdydurke

“Work on the stage incarnation of Witold Gombrowicz's novel Ferdydurke can go on forever. We diligently read the pages of our youth. The book of being is quite jagged, in places dirty, some pages in the marks of dubious provenance, the edges of this book are painted in such a way that they comically multiply when you browse quickly. I bury myself and I force the actors to rummage through my childhood, and how else to get closer to the novel. Our performance will be successful only if all participants and viewers fall into childhood as much as possible. Combine the method of children's play (the essence of improvisation theater) with deep psychological dullness. The result is existential grotesque. A theatrical fantasy about ... The feeling of a butt, a competition with a butt, the ability to admit in a butt, playing with a butt is an intellectual, creative protest against dullness. "
