„"The Arabian Nights" can be considered a dramatic fairy tale, explicit even from the title. At first, nothing announces the unusual events that will follow. Everything takes place in a seven-story apartment building in Germany, inhabited by modest people, coming from many corners of the world. Solitudes, dreams, the need for communication, for love, are embedded in a play that includes the epic, the poetic and the dramatic. The fantastic gradually insinuates itself into these existences, making room in equal measure for fulfillment and tragedy. The concrete of the block becomes more bearable when unsuspected dreams and fantasies hide between the cracks of the walls.
