The Whale
By: Samuel D. Hunter
Directed by: Andrei Huțuleac
Teatrul Metropolis
Romania

Charlie hasn’t left the house in years. Not even to greet the people delivering his food. Charlie is very sick. This might be his last week alive.

In “The Whale” we are witnessing a lonely man’s attempt to come to terms with his own choices and, above all, to win the forgiveness of his loved ones.

"The show can guide us to our own depths, in a journey from which we can rationally understand, but above all feel, that we must protect the extremely fragile essential values of life." (Irina Ionescu)
