about the production
Production Nox sounds like a realistic play without any words. More particular people live in a specific space that can be regarded as a room. They perform in actions which are very particular. Nevertheless, a real meaning of particularity cannot be explained. The gloomy atmosphere of nocturnal scenes evokes images of Edward Munch, anxiety from the search for one's own identity, but it also indicates life materialized by a superficial advertising gesture and fear of oneself. A microstory allows spectators to anticipate that all characters belonged to someone and somewhere, however, it seems that they gave up the search for this place long ago.
