The performance-game "Bagadelnia" is eight different, but very interrelated stories from one nursing home for the elderly. The actors will offer the audience to choose which stories they want to see. "Bagadelnia" tells the story of people who lived different lives, had different experiences and destinies, but ended up at one common point.
The fact that the heroes of the play are residents of a nursing home for the elderly does not at all mean that the audience will be drowned in sadness and sympathy during the play. By no means. The actors of the show will reveal to you the fun, almost fabulous adventures, experiences and discoveries of gray heroes, old romantics, former Soviet-era hippies. After all, in old age, when everything seems less colorful, some things just have to be fantasized. Worldviews, religions, and opposing political viewpoints will collide in the performance, but mostly it will be a person's confrontation with himself, with those around him, and with his memories.
As the residents of the care home for the elderly say, bagadelnia is already the porch of heaven. And this is what Jim Morrison from the group "The Doors" who will appear in the performance says about this porch: "The doors of perception are cleansed here and everything appears to man as it is, infinite" (help for those who do not understand English). The creators of the show invite the audience to open the door to that porch together, because maybe it will be possible to see what will come next and what has already remained before it? And what if those five old men who appear in the play, during their long lives and borderline experiences, really already opened that door and got to know something that they could share with us? What if?
