About the play
The city of Kavala has been completely taken over by this once-likeable-and-harmless species, the seagulls. Their initially discreet presence has now become dominant. Houses and public spaces have turned into nesting grounds, and everywhere on the streets, you can see their eggs. If you make the mistake of destroying them, the aerial attack is immediate and irreversible. In an abandoned building, a group of seven almost-strangers tries to survive. And they wonder how they managed to get here.
A new, original text that creatively converses with Vassilis Vassilikos’ dystopian trilogy (The Plant – The Well – The Angel) and, in attempting to continue his thoughts, it questions what the end of our days will be like. How will the world be afterwards? And what means will the earth find to punish us for all we didn’t do, for all the opportunities we lost. Is there a crack that can fit us, or has our time already passed?
