"The Visit of the Old Lady" which premiered on the stage of I. L. Caragiale National Theatre of Romania has been among the celebrated titles on the theatre's repertory since. With a lapse of one theatre season the production is back with planned performances on 6-th and 7-th January. Tickets are available for sale at Caragiale's website. 

     One of the most significant playwrights in the world, Friedrich Dürrenmatt, and a play that became a classic. The choice of text to raises problems that, in our modern times, are more acute than ever - justice for money, prostitution (of the heart), unforgettable and unforgiven love, the freedom of women's choice, truckling as a form of social and financial progress. Can one million dollars buy the moral dignity of an entire city? A text about humanity reduced to the scale of a modest provincial market, a satire about implacable mores which make it impossible to distinguish between alleged victims and alleged executioners. A mix of outrageous comedy and drama built on an inconvenient question: what is the price of our conscience - loads of money or, maybe, just a few bucks?
