"Do you remember..?" This tricky question is often heard in conversations. Why tricky? Because different people remember the same events differently. Or do not remember. That's how sometimes parallel worlds are created...
Vladislav Nastavshev’s new musical production, based on the play by the text group Orbīta, commissioned by the Theater, is dedicated to the relationship between language and memory. The characters have beem ambushed by that very question: "Do you remember..?" And now they are trying to remember something, indeed. Thus starts both frankly comical and really touching journey through the backstreets of one’s memory: the characters struggle to reach their goal, trying on different masks, combining fragments of memories, relying on associations, turning to scientific research, resorting to the help of a professional healer and even writing jubilee greetings. Of course, there is always the question, whether it is worth remembering what has been forgotten. But... you won’t know untlil you have recalled it, right?
