Promising the Moon, Promising Episodes

A stage essay dealing with guilt, wrong and shame. Which of the life situations we go through can we really influence? Do we have any possibility to decide? How big a part of our life do we really hold tight in our hands? And how much of it is a mere free-fall result? Can we voluntarily bind our life to that of another person? Belong to someone? What is the value of a commitment? What is the power of a word? And in what manner does time affect the consistency of a person’s decision? When does leaving a relationship and releasing oneself from a commitment mean a betrayal and when does it mean a virtue? On the ground plan of a classical love triangle, and a wide range of archetypal couple clichés, the production casts light on the symptoms of moral promiscuity from the perspective of courage, strength and self-care.
