Spark 018 · Question

Which moment on a stage still lives in you?

Theatre happens once, in a room, and then it is gone — except it is not. A line spoken in the dark, an actor's pause, a stage emptied of everything but light: some moments stay for years. The salon's theatre room gathers plays from Turkey, Portugal and across Europe from the last twenty years — and asks what the stage left with you. Which performance, which line, which silence do you still carry?
