Dr. Stockmann, the idealistic doctor of a spa resort in a generic town, makes a shocking discovery: the springs that attract thousands of tourists to his town are not curative, but dangerous to health. It's just that the "heart that pumps life itself" in this town brings both income and advantages for all members of the social pyramid. Stockmann thus embarks on a solitary fight to expose the truth in a world where economic interests prevail and the community often remains indifferent.

One of the masterpieces of silent cinema made by Charlie Chaplin is transformed into a lively and moving musical on the stage of the Regina Maria Theater.

The story is a simple one: Charlie Chaplin, a film director, while on the set giving a speech to his employees, learns some sad news. But this whole moment is interrupted by a kid, who is running from the police and asks the director to pretend to be his father. This is where the idea of a touching but humorous film starts, in which the protagonists are a poor glazier and an orphaned child, who go through all sorts of adventures together.

by David Lindsay-Abaire, directed by Vlad Cristache

In a parallel universe, everything is wonderful and things happen as they should. In this universe, a child runs after a dog, then returns to play in the living room.

In another universe, a collective butterfly effect is created where someone forgets an open door, someone answers the phone, someone is in a hurry and everyone, for a split second, does not anticipate what is about to happen… and the dog returns on its own. An accident occurs, an absurd accident, for which everyone and no one is to blame at the same time. And the healing process is a difficult one, which takes place on a personal and interpersonal level as well.

Rabbit Hole is a moving psychological drama, cleverly constructed around the idea of loss and the survival mechanisms people adopt in the slow process of healing. It is a warm story of acceptance, strength and transformation.

The play “Cruelty and Tenderness” is a contemporary reinterpretation of Sophocles’ “The Trachineans,” by Martin Crimp, which updates the ancient Greek tragedy and puts it in relation to the political climate of today’s world. Sophocles’ character, Deianeira, thus becomes, in Crimp’s reinterpretation, Amelia, the wife of a general. Housed in a temporary house near an international airport, as she receives more information about the general’s war activities, she devises a plan to bring him home. Her love for him becomes clouded by doubt and hatred when she learns that her high-ranking husband has initiated a military attack on a strategic city not only for political but also sentimental reasons.

A strange transaction is about to take place.

No one knows exactly how to proceed in a situation like this, but attempts are being made to work out the details so that all parties involved are satisfied.

After twenty years of blissful extramarital bliss, the two face the toughest challenge of their relationship yet: meeting the parents of their son's fiancée.

They both decide the best approach is to hide their sexual identities, along with their flamboyant personalities, when their ultra-conservative, anti-gay future in-laws come to visit. This comical scenario sets off a stunning French farce.

"last it is a piece of life, lived real and without restraint, without modesty. Mimi's plays do not spare you, longing. Everything is raw, authentic and true. It is a show about dreaming and about helplessness, about the desire to succeed, to go somewhere more into the light. I chose the text because it is a tough text, because I believe in the truth, even if it revolts us and is difficult to digest. Our characters are captive in a world and in a time that passes in vain. They are as we are, both bad and beautiful, you judge them, but you also pity them. We all dream of a better life, we all dream of being happy and, depending on the situation we find ourselves in, we are willing or not to make compromises.” (Denisa Irina Vlad)

Until Death Do Us Part (Liselotte and the Month of May) is a show in which humor is intertwined with tragedy.

He, the Chosen One, puts on the colorful coat of the playful, ending in the sobriety of a master of ceremonies' tuxedo... the ceremony of marriage or death?
