Long Life
New Riga Theatre (Latvia)

Grand PRIX, International Theatre Festival BITEF, 2005

A multiple award-winning production about ageing, this wordless tender and life-affirming
play performed by young virtuoso actors follows one day in the lives of five retired elderly
people sharing a communal flat in Riga. In their world, they communicate with each other
through the objects and material things seemingly endowed with a life and soul of their own.

“A stunning achievement that brings poignancy, humour and humanity to the humdrum
lives it portrays” - Variety

11 – 13 June, 8pm
100 mins (without intermission)
Esplanade Theatre Studio
