Common Tongue II | International Roma Theaterfestival | Juvlenge Historie (Woman History) | by Romano Teatro “Nexhip Menekshe”

Unfortunately, all the stories of women staged in the play are taken from real life! What is told in this performance is the heartbreaking story of women that we read in newspaper news, in the black chronicle, but never really think about – and unfortunately take for granted. A meeting like poetry… Half a dream, half a reality… Sometimes a tragic game,  sometimes funny for women… Just like life! A little sadness, a little laughter… Women who did not speak while they were alive… What would they say if they could return again to this  world?
