Parody

In the small hall of Von Krahli Theatre, 52-year-old Mart and 32-year-old Priit meet. Two bodies carrying meanings they have chosen for themselves, as well as those attributed to them by others. Their dialogue is not merely their dialogue – here conformists and radicals, cholerics and phlegmatics, attackers and goalkeepers, pioneers and millennials, bald men and bearded men, young people who do not drink or party, and middle-aged people who are constantly hungover collide. Everyone is convinced that their worldview is valid and is prepared to defend it passionately. What happens when these worlds collide? The collaborative production by Mart Kangro and Priit Põldma is an exploration of identity and the points of contact and collision between generations. They present their positions, trying to understand whether these are truly personal or shaped by something else – generational attitudes, context and prevailing circumstances. Is it possible in today’s world to say something that does not sound like a parody of itself? Kangro and Põldma’s previous joint work was titled “Comedy”. “Parody” promises to be even gloomier and more serious than “Comedy”. Without a joke. Authors and performers Mart Kangro and Priit Põldma
