 | The Game to Play is a poetic solo performance where fragments of memory and visions of the unseen trace the delicate edge between sorrow and transcendence. It is both a meditation and a call—embodying the eternal Mother who keeps walking, carrying the seed of life itself, reminding us that even within the game of existence, love endures. | |

In a seemingly ordinary family gathering, a mother and daughter slip into chaos, sorrow, and existential crisis. Beneath it all runs a deeper thread: life itself as a game of forgetting and remembering. The play leads its audience through devastation into a quiet but profound moment of awakening—a reminder that even in grief, transformation is possible. |  |

| Let’s Play the Game began as a response to the devastating war in Ukraine—but it quickly revealed itself to be something larger. At its core, this is not only a story about one war, one family, or one country. It is a story about what it means to be human: to suffer, to question, to remember. | |
