An installation of wedding images, dreams, memories, nightmares and drunken visions.
It is his wedding morning. He drank. A lot. They bring him home and
wind the alarm clock. And they leave. In his drunken mind a whirl of
wedding ceremonies begins to twist when he is the bridegroom for a while
and then the best man, a man in the crowd or even the man who weds the
couple. The music plays unsoundly, the best man has forgotten the rings,
the bride does not have the bouquet, her dress or her underwear. Sometimes
even the bride is missing. Sometimes there are two brides or three but
only one bridegroom. And all the brides want to get married.

...This
new performance of Continuo Theatre also belongs to open air, to city
quiet corners and gardens, to castle or mansion courtyards but first of
all to streets and squares. This is due to expressive means: grotesquely
stylised characters which take advantage of excellent physical skills
of all the actors, impressive props, marionettes, stilts, live music,
precise work with lights, fire and water. But this time also more intensely
thanks to thematic plan of the performance. The performance is a montage
of images which seem to come from everyday observations, our own dreams,
memories, nightmares and drunken visions which are adequately hyperbolised
on the directorial, visual and music level.
