But you know it's 42 according to Douglas Adams
the meaning of life?
Oh?!
But that's why we're both 42, huh?!
... Yes (laughs)
Yes, what is it?
Huh?
I mean the meaning of life.
Yes 42!
Aaaah!.......

Friends, real and surreal. The real ones.

Why is egoism fashionable today and does the duality still exist in our language and society? All around you can see only property and narrow-minded egos. This is where the journey of a friendly couple begins, bound by a history of shared experiences. They tirelessly try to maintain this duality, which is not threatened by disintegration due to broken relationships with each other - they are harmonious - but is threatened by disintegration from the outside. The world lives in the singular, where camaraderie is no longer an issue.

The play explores the layers of modern life and ourselves. Through the movement-theatrical principle, it depicts a magical illusion - the circus of life and female protagonists who find themselves in a network of mutual relationships and relationships with society.

The real question is: how to find natural peace and balance again, feeling for feeling? We are all looking for a way for ourselves, because there are oases of warmth and beauty, but on the way there one becomes an emotional acrobat, a circus performer.

Is hell the new heaven, or is what society is building into heaven a hell for friendship? A story about trying to maintain balance in such a world and know how to stay true not only to yourself, but also to your neighbor...
