“The Last Story” by Kaca Celan is an award-winning play honored and world premiered in Germany.
A duodrama, a war of conversations, exploding phrases filled with emotions strong like gunpowder - “A verbal therapy” with and against each other, a striking parable of the battle of the sexes develops; its intensity equals a mirror, in which the audience watches itself through the protagonists, “the last Adam and Eve”, who, like a lion and lioness, are caught in the cage called marriage.
The play illustrates the never-ending unavailing quest for the paradisiacal harmony between a man and a woman. "The Last Story" is a postmodern German version of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?".
Kaca Celan is an internationally renowned dramatist and director with 30 years of working experience in theaters across Yugoslavia, Slovenia, Russia, Austria and Germany. In 1984 she founded Theater TAS in Sarajevo to promote new theater genres. TAS was re-established in 1993 at Burgau Castle in Germany and was active there until Celan’s arrival to New York in 2007. Kaca Celan has written 12 plays and directed over 40 productions.
