The elephant in the room / Elefantul din Cameră

"The Elephant in the Room" tells a story about coming to terms with the past and the search for a common language in a broken relationship, in which prolonged silence becomes an obstacle on the path to possible reconciliation. Two sisters, Noni and Ana, come to terms with the loss of their father in their own way: By looking for answers in all the wrong places, by deflecting blame, by remaining silent and ultimately by isolating themselves in their respective realities. A third character intervenes in this dynamic: The narrator, who has the power to change elements around the characters - including time. He tries to repair the situation, but in the end it becomes clear that something else is at stake.
The play raises questions about the nature of unresolved conflicts and the fragility of reconciliation. "The Elephant in the Room" invites the audience to reflect on the invisible moments of our interactions - those that are essential and yet often go unnoticed.
