Tear // Csiky Gergely Hungarian State Theatre Timișoara (Romania)

Csiky Gergely Hungarian State Theatre Timișoara (Romania)

Ernesztó is recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament tear. They took away his favourite role at the theatre, and they also took away what had always been his reliable crutch: the euphoria of football. Some crutch, right! But still, who took it away? Life? Fate? As always? Is it possible that he wasn’t even happy before? It’s time to pick up the scalpel! Our hero looks inside himself and sees that the threads lead all the way back to 1994, when, in the Italy–Bulgaria World Cup semi-final, Gianluca Pagliuca steps out in perfect timing to intercept Lechkov’s through ball… But the Grasshopper and the Ant also appear, the golden team of Șimian, a compensation of 50,000 euros, grandma’s leg ointment, and a birthday table bending under the weight of food. Everything is connected – that’s why healing is so difficult.
