MEMOROOM is a surrealistic tragicomedy of the TRIO OLGA physical theatre, which plays with the themes of memory loss, identity, one’s own thoughts, love and reality.

What would happen if we suddenly triggered some memories all at once? What if they surfaced in one room, broken down into a tangle of unrelated situations and painfully incomprehensible fragments? Would we be able to reassemble the story of our lives?

The Memoroom project is a stylized theatrical attempt to capture the processes of memory, which we see not only as a passive mirroring and storing of images of the past, but especially as an active factor in perceiving, judging and shaping our presently lived reality.

But… perhaps we are just trying to understand our lives, to ask questions about our relationships, thoughts, and even the structure of our reality.
