Three young directors faced a difficult challenge – Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. They divided the text into three acts, chose a key passage for themselves, gave it a title, found all the conflicts between the characters and justified them, they described and organized the space, and what is most important–they substantiated the of aim of their work.
During the long conversations they conducted, the most difficult task was to design the space. Space, which organizes the actions of the characters, which becomes the interpretation and the strategy, the emotional tissue of the performance. Such thinking has created two basic questions, what has Gregor dreamt about that he overslept? Could this be just another dream during his commute to work? From that moment on they went. May they have enough courage and joy in the creative process. This is not easy...

I'm having a really good time working with the group. Everybody gives their all, and the creativity levels are high. There are many different wills, coming both from actors and directors, just as it should be! As there are three directors working together on one piece, there are many discussions.
