Catch the one-off performance of Eric Emmanuel Schmitt's bitter-sweet Enigma Variations, starring two of the greatest Romanian theatre actors, Mircea Diaconu and Alexandru Repan, and join us in the celebration of Romanian language and thespian excellence.
Evasions and lies twist into increasingly complex puzzles as two men, an acclaimed author and an apparently bland journalist, find themselves in love with the same woman. Brought face to face by the intricacies of love, how will their worlds collide? A riveting contest of wit and wills, a battle of gut and nature, a bitter-sweet infusion of humour and longing, Enigma Variations brings to the fore two powerhouses of the Romanian theatre scene.
