From where we are, we cannot see what lies around the next bend. Something comes to an end—and something else begins.
In the words of the Alaine Polcz Academy: “Our aim is to break taboos and think together about life and death in a no-nonsense environment.”

The closer we are to ourselves, the more authentically we live, the more influence we have on our “big processes,” whether it is birth, falling in love, or death. We cannot control the direction of these processes with our attention, presence, or thoughts, but we can control their quality—our experiences and the life that we live.
If I look back now, am I satisfied with my life? If I knew I was going to die soon, what would I do with the time I had left? Have I really lived, or was I just slowly dying? What does an untimely end mean? How do I know if something is really over?
What is the difference between letting go and giving up?
How do I want to die?
These are the questions we seek to answer in our creative process.
Along these lines, we are organising three free events/workshops where we will gather from the participants/viewers their own experiences on the theme of the play and incorporate them into the performance. In addition to this collection of experiences, an important part of these meetings will be to spread knowledge about the processing of grief and change management, and to raise (social) awareness about the nature and importance of working with grief and the problems that arise from its omission.
