Momo, or Life Ahead
based on the novel by Romain Gary
A one-man show by Dimitar Nikolov-Shablata
One-man show | Performance for adults
Grown-up Momo returns to Madame Rosa’s apartment for the first time in years. Everything is the same—covered in layers of dust and passing time.
Every object, piece of furniture, and item of clothing calls up memories and stories. Madame Rosa’s kimono and wig—hidden signs from the past that only Momo can recognize and decipher. All around him, the “ghosts,” fears, elations, and doubts of childhood come to life. Voices that fell silent long ago once again take on substance and fill the cramped space of the “sixth floor without an elevator.”
The frantic longing for LOVE, then and now! A magical world that has sunk irretrievably into the abyss of time… Irretrievably?
