Shadow of a tree by Ekaterina Narshi: The hero of the play would like to live due to his own free will and hates everyone who tries to put pressure on him come to the choices he makes. Shadow of a tree is a symbolic play discussing the existential issues of an average European man or woman who is fed up with civilisation and modernity in world. It may be a rebellion against a life in which one is bored to death.
Evasion by Gyrid Axe Øvsteng: Mo is inside. Hansen is outside and sometimes inside. Who has the key to the door and who of them is free?
