MORTALITY, HOORAY

Childhood is a viral infection that causes swelling in the glands of the neck.

Greta follows beauty tips, Jim considers himself

to be the victim of hilarious paranormal activities,

while Mary and Mrs Ko fall in love with each other.

The mystery of the human soul creates a poetic universe full of absurdity,

contradictions and hope, interrupted by scientific information.

It could be an accurate, erotic composition, an enigma based on reality.

Reality is funny.

The play encapsulates eastern civilization in a certain sense,

wondering what knowledge is

and providing a humorous perspective on human relations in need of revision,

while it envisions the present as a moment of coexistence, as eternity.

In the end, even death unites us.
