In the short story A King Listens, Italo Calvino describes a king who lives in a never-ending paranoia of losing his power. He is sitting on his throne, night and day, to protect it. His only contact with the outside world are the sounds coming from different parts of the palace: the footsteps of the servants, whispers and conversations, fanfare trumpets at the raising of the flag, ceremonies, the sounds of the city at the outskirts of the palace, riots, the rumble of cannons, etc. He cannot see their source but is obsessed by interpreting their meaning and the destiny they are predicting. This paranoia only seems to stop when he hears something that completely enchants him. Through the window, the wind brings in the singing of a woman, a voice of pure beauty, unique and irreplaceable. For the king, it is the sound of freedom.
Ticket prices: 400 din.

CIRCUS PERFORMANCE COMPLICITÉS
"Today, I'm happy to be together!"
Circus sketches, small pearls and (un)controlled skids for 11 mentally handicapped artists and 7 artist-accomplices on the track.
With Complicitiés, the Viewer is invited to go beyond the borders of the standard (ab)normality, to cross from the ordinary to the extraordinary, from reality to a dream... This is a creation for dreamers, tender crazy Don Quixotes of tracks ready to do anything to reach the inaccessible star.
This is a circus show talking about in the (in)difference, living together and solidarity, beauty and communication, hidden and revealed talents, efforts and dreams, infinity of space and ideas... it speaks the language of circus, theater, music, play (in any sense).... One of the creators, Jean - Luc Piraux comments: The handicapped people are muses of our day-dreamed circus... They speak about the everyday life in a simple way but about the transcendental level as well. This is a precious gift and that is why they are able to create a true poetry...
Ticket price: 300 din.
