The City - Overnight Visitor/The City/The Parade

The City

Work:: The City (S412311099)

A trio of one-act plays: In the Overnight Visitor two generations conflict because their fears differ: Mimis' lost ideals taunt him with their betrayal, while young Sophia's ignorant lack of ideals prevents her from understanding him. In The City, Elisabeth, a woman who believes that her first love was executed in a recent past and Kimon who refuses to leave the safety of their apartment - indulge in a charade which delights in the torture of a third; a lonely, weak man, whose business is taking photographs of people in 'unusual' poses. In The Parade Aris and Zoe live alone in a shabby room, in an alien environment, unable or unwilling to venture out. Their squabbles and reconciliations provide a lyrical cadenza of uncertainty and fear. But ultimately they are silenced by the barbaric rituals of an outside world which invades their emptiness and imposes its crescendo.
