David, a young American in 1950´s in Paris. He is waiting for his fiancée, Hella to return from her holiday in Spain. But when David meets Giovanni, a handsome Italian barman, the two are drawn into an intense affair. Upon the return of Hella back to Paris, David rejects Giovanni for a safe future as a married man. His decision eventually brings tragedy. This new version of Giovanni´s Room we will meet Varun Puppeteer. The puppet is a mysterious spirit – a lasting memory of James Baldwin, also reflected in Giovanni’s Room’s feminine, dark, and nourishing energy.
The performance is in English.
