The play takes place at the entrance of a residential building in Athens of 2000.\u00a0 The entrance is this in-between place, separating the outside world from the homes of the individuals.\u00a0 In this entrance, a concierge, like a modern fate, follows the ins and outs of 7 characters.\u00a0 Two apartments in the building change residents.\u00a0 As the old residents move out, new ones move in.\u00a0 The concierge witnesses the old world moving out and the new world moving in her building.\u00a0 What connects all individual stories is that all people move to change their lives for better.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Two street-wise movers, with the names Feng and Shui, transfer the belongings of these people inside big boxes.\u00a0 The boxes function as memory apparatuses.\u00a0 They open during the play to reveal the kind of baggage human beings collect.\u00a0 Literal objects, and metaphorical ones.\u00a0 Memories, desires, opinions on politics or religion, beliefs.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The issues in the play revolve around the themes of home, movement, immigration, and time.\u00a0 Locating recent changes in contemporary society and lifestyle, the play celebrates the transition from an old, familiar, but fading world to a new and unknown one, that is pregnant with welcoming or not welcoming surprises.<\/p>\n
It has been translated in German by Martin Scharnhorst, and its German translation is going to be published by Queich Verlag, Berlin, Germany, in 2014.<\/p>\n
