by Mario Banushi:
Original concept, Director: Mario Banushi
From 20 September 2023
The production that delighted audiences and critics alike returns to the National Theatre of Greece shortly before a world tour visiting Belgrade, Dresden, Amsterdam, and Adelaide (Australia).
Goodbye, Lindita focuses on a primal human experience, that of losing a loved one. In a house, a family mourns in silence, until a series of strange events opens a window onto a world in which memory is intertwined with fantasy, reality with dreams; a universe in which the dead and the living can briefly meet before their final farewell. The story that unfolds on stage is made up of familiar ingredients, but here, the everyday and the recognisable take on metaphysical overtones that reveal the characters' psychological progress.
Mario Banushi, a multitalented young artist who brings a personal, handcrafted visual world to the theatre, has been inspired by his own experiences and the burial customs and traditions of the Balkans to create a parable about life after death through a sequence of poetic images. Without ever hearing the characters speak, we become witness to an inner journey that attempts to answer the eternal question of how to say farewell to those we love most. In Goodbye, Lindita this moment of parting is an end but at the same time a new beginning.
