The Lucky Children
A portrayed homage to the vanished memories
Omar Ghayatt delivered a brilliant proposal in his show “The Lucky Children,” with an artistic and aesthetic sensitivity that astonished the audience.
Synopsis
The Lucky Children is a dream-like ride that dives into the inner universe of three people grappling with memory disorders. The events take place on a desolate, windswept beach while they strive to rekindle their memories; in a world where past and present have merged, desperately clinging to the remnants of their fading memories as a lifeline, they celebrate these dimming recollections before they vanish entirely. On stage, the boundaries between childhood and old age blur and dissolve in a poignant display.
