Spectra atelier. Romantic Etude - Mumerus Theatre

In the painting atelier it is not allowed to wash the windows. It's about light - when it passes through the glass too insistently it can distort any physiognomy. Bah! He can even pose a lie to reality. To make this or that fight a loser, when the glory of victory is still alive in the hearts of many.

It is here that jaded professional models and actors-cabotins meet. In the atelier they are at home, like at home. It is in their eyes that contempt lurks when someone carelessly moves the easel to another place. Or worse, he will abandon the blaittram, spending it on the scourge of oblivion.

In the atelier, time is measured by sounds. One chord can bring several distant stories to life. The music of the National Composer played on a disassembled piano becomes a prison for actors. And although they sharpen their ears in the hope of a pause that will allow you to catch your breath - in vain. And somewhere in a forgotten corner, the ghost chants a song on itself only a familiar, and yet close to us, melody.

Props are memory vehicles here. Only, it is not known where they transfer - to personal memories? Or can he only do the poses conceived as part of the acting assignment?

The Mumerus Theater does not promise answers to the above questions, but it opens the door to the interior and invites you to enter the world of the spectres of the atelier.
