My view on „Rencontres” / „Intalniri” / „Meetings” (Passe Partout DP) play

This evening I’ve seen „Rencontres” / „Intalniri” / „Meetings” (Passe Partout DP) play (Passe Partout DP).

The play was written and directed by Dragoș HULUBA and Violeta TOTIR and the stars were the same Dragoș HULUBA and Violeta TOTIR.

Bellow my feed-back.

First, a loop in three points:

• There is a play and a book called „Ce ne spunem cand nu ne vorbim” / „What we tell each other when we don’t speak”, by Chris SIMION (Ce ne spunem cand nu ne vorbim – roman si spectacol semnat Chris Simion – Cultura – HotNews.ro); I am unfamiliar with both; but the title is revelatory in two ways – even without saying things, you can say a lot of things (and pantomime theater works great on that) (i.) and, also, to me, it’s relevant that I can „get” (understand) some things, even if those things are not apparent;
• I’ve seen another Passe Partout DP play – Don Quijote, Miguel de CERVANTES – Teatrul Naţional Bucureşti – I failed to understand too many things out of it; I liked some of the play, but couldn’t understand most of the action, and besides a esthetically pleasing game of horses, can’t remember much of it;
• I like Bruno MEDICINA (Bruno MEDICINA – the trainer whose coaching abilities I like most – Get a result now!) for his ability to make me get insights; he says one thing, I may agree or not, like it or not, but the other thoughts that get into my mind are great; it’s not what he says, but what I make of what he says that matters (even if the two are unrelated);

Now, back to the show;

What I liked?

• Unlike my previous and (as far as I can remember) only other experience with pantomime, I DID understand about 40% of the show; I could focus and understand parts of it; not everything, but much better than nothing; I did have an idea of what was it all about;
• I liked the speech (finally, words!);
• It was great when the audience was involved (I won’t get into details, it was just great);
• The actors played pantomime well;

What was great?

• During the performance, I got something I get in a Bruno MEDICINA workshop – insights; but one was so huge, I’ll do a separate blog post about it; it’s like this – the actors do their work, and I try (hard, I might add) to understand what do they do in there, why do they do this and that; and some action / emotion / thought comes to me; and, while I focus on their act I also focus on my own internal feelings, and sometimes, from this intricate game of „what’s there” vs. „what’s here”, I get an insight; cool, huh? Here goes my blog post – Revelation (huge!): God is watching over me and helps me – Get a result now!

Enjoy!
