"As an actor I must be able to feel everything and live it. The trick is that everyone can be an actor as long as they want to. And everyone plays. Everyone feels. And this is what brings us all together, here, now. Our common sensations. And, perhaps, eventually, some kind of need. Something we miss. What do we need? "
"There is no present. You blink and the moment has already passed, the next one is coming. As I say this, it is already past, and the future is yet to come. I stand in the void. I am gone."
A Play About Us was created with the support of the Bulgarian Ministry of Culture and Cinema House.
