THE DRESSING ROOM: in the end everything gone turns into precious memories...

Four actresses are preparing to go on the stage, dreaming of roles never played, quarrelling, gossiping about each other and squabbling. Passion for theatre has held some of them up in the dressing-room even after death. The fearful ghosts are citing in their dialogues the lines from Chekhov and Shakespeare, mentioning the injuries experienced during the Second World War and using multilayered self irony. The play purposefully crystallizes the mood of backstage life, breaking down at the same time the spaces of reality and unreality.
