Cluj-Napoca National Theatre participates in the 22nd edition of the National Theatre Festival in Bucharest with THE ISLAND by Ada Milea, based on Gellu Naum’s play. Two performances will be presented on Sunday 4 November 2012 in the Main Hall of Odeon Theatre at 5 and 8pm.
The musical ISLAND by Ada Milea brings onstage the story of Gellu Naum’s Robinson, a Robinson alone on a lonely island full of people. The serious playing from the homonym play written by the Romanian surrealist poet and playwright Gellu Naum is a puzzle of meetings and situations involving exotic characters such as a mermaid, a pirate, a Bedouin, but also numerous members of Robinson’s lost family. The quests, the pursuits, the meetings and, again, the quests, all rapid and almost mechanical, have in common the loneliness, also lost and found. Ada Milea builds a concert of loneliness brought together by Gellu Naum, bringing together herself the voices and the presence of Cluj-Napoca National Theatre’s actors, in a 100% theatrical concert.
