Krum

Tallinn City Theatre

Krum returns home, to a sleepy town, where he announces the failure of his life plans. But it soon becomes clear that the lives of others have not moved on either. Everyone picks up where they left off. Everyone is stuck, paralysed, in a constant state of expectation and hope. And so Krumi's life becomes a waiting game, in the course of which it becomes clear that life itself - the great and unimaginable - tends to flow by. Drunk on dreams and terrified of life, Krum feels his grip on reality slipping further and further, throwing the little man into ever greater chaos.

Spiced with humour, “Krum” is an existentialist absurdist play by Israel's best-known playwright Hanoh Levin, which belongs to the literary classics. Written in 1972 and performed extensively on stages around the world, it reveals a scalpel-sharp depiction of bourgeois life that passes by people like a film.
