Teatre Licedei
"A succession of clowns enter a prettily-decorated room.
One of them tries in vain to lay his head on an invitingly plump pillow, but the pillow has other ideas. A chase ensues, culminating in a dramatic fight between clown and pillow.
The protagonist finally gives up and asks one of his fellow clowns to knock him out with a mallet, so he can finally get some sleep.
But the second clown refuses. Reaching the end of his tether, the first clown riles up his recalcitrant colleague with a red Soviet flag. A fleeting image whose poetic power and sense of irony sum up this unique performance.
The clowns of Teatr Licedei exist in a state of profound dissatisfaction with the world in which they live. "
