A Play Based on Oleg Mikhailov's "Sworn Virgins"
Director: Konstantin Soldatov
"To be yourself or to follow traditions?" – this question remains relevant today. The play immerses the audience in the world of Albanian women, where archaic laws still dictate the rules of life.
Imagine a successful woman who, according to an ancient custom, must renounce personal happiness and assume the role of head of the family. The familiar dilemma of choosing between career and personal life takes an unexpected turn: the heroines are forced to fight not only against societal expectations but also against centuries-old traditions of blood revenge.
This is not just a story about love—it is a manifesto of the right to be happy despite circumstances. The play will make you reflect on how often we trap ourselves within societal norms and recognize parallels with modern life, where freedom of choice is sometimes just an illusion.
An open conversation about finding balance between tradition and personal happiness—a topic that will resonate with anyone who has ever faced a difficult life choice.
After the third bell, entry to the performance is not possible.
