The work presents a portrait of two lovers far removed from idealized narratives of romance, yet deeply recognizable. It reflects a relationship built not on resolution, but on repetition—where closeness and detachment coexist, and where the difficulty of understanding one another becomes part of the bond itself.

The text is an adaptation of an unpublished contemporary English play, presented here for the first time in Italy as a full production, following a staged reading at the Intercity Festival in Sesto Fiorentino in 2005.

A defining feature of the production is its adaptability. The piece can be staged both indoors and outdoors—in parks, gardens, forests, beaches, lakesides, or riverbanks—making use of natural light and reinforcing its sense of displacement and openness.
