On an empty field in no-man’s-land hundreds of people stand waiting. Most of them are carrying bags. Some of them are carrying children. They stand in square formations, 40 people per square. They’re also on their way. They’re waiting for a night train.
Night Passage is a story that originates from a true event that happened in Macedonia in 2015. What happens to the person whose worldview is controlled by suspicion? How long does it take for fear to take hold? When it’s dark, and we don’t know where to go, what are we willing to pay to be able to do the right thing?
The play is performed in three different languages and is therefore also subtitled.
“You do not leave the room indifferent”
“Striking interpretations of the talented actors”
“A play that gives voice to those who don’t have one and eyes to those who refuse to see reality”
“Gustav Nordmark’s sound design makes the heart pound faster”
“The trilingualism of the play create its own dramatical effect”
“A simple but efficient play”
