I should let go of the actors. Instead I should make up a crazy story with the audience! How could I make the audience act in a trance, how can I make them live with maximum intensity at least for one and a half hour, to live a concentrated version of eccentric life, without any restraints, taboos and prejudices, for at least 90 minutes? How could I offer them the illusion of a life that is as magical and unforeseeable as a play that is that well written... that spans over centuries... with the ease of a lioness crossing a savanna packed with pink flamingos. Even more. How could I make the audience ignore what is happening onstage so they can become the center of the universe, right there, in the auditorium, during an hour and a half? (Radu Afrim)
