The heroine of this drama recalls wittily and self-ironically the seemingly bizarre and unimportant situations that arose in her constant effort to overcome loneliness and separation from the world.
Although she feels like an extra in her own life, she finds all the tricky ways to fit in by going to a romance class, holding swimming lessons in her kitchen, flirting with female friendship. She successfully blends humour and pathos, through dance and song she talks about all the issues wittily, finding joy and a place in the world that is right for her, right there.
The play is for all age groups, "from students to retirees." And especially to those sensitized to the women's issues of today's society.
An honest and open approach to the problem of loneliness, a problem not taken seriously enough, seeks to encourage the audience to discuss and react.
