After a successful string of performances on the Thames shore this summer, Masca Theatre returns to London to present another of its shows. The Romanian Cultural Institute presents the performance of The Wall, a production based on the non-verbal, “living statues” signature technique perfected by the intrepid company established and led by famous thespian Mihai Mălaimare.
Caught in the merciless embrace of the Wall, He and She live their life thinking to escape and constantly attempting it. Everything they dream and do is devoted to this goal. With every new effort they succeed in making some progress but immediately their victory is turned into a failure and the Wall embraces them again and again in its ruthless drive to transform them into brick and mortar.
