Masks theatre (video from the play)

"I am a weeping star" is a volume composed of eleven stories written with M.L.P.'s sensitive, poetic style. Lonely people, on a daily basis, experience a fragile reality, a need to flee from the uncertain present. Each story has its own path of self-knowledge, its own alienating relationship with everyday life. But all together are linked by solitude, the nostalgia of something lost, the violence of these times, the need for a romantic illusion, the pursuit of ultimate joy. In these stories, the "other" is a person lost in the fog of the past or he could be beside us, but we can't see him, his presence is shrouded. A painfully subversive feeling.
