DRAMATIC CREATION COMPETITION DEDICATED TO THE SHORT PIECE | 2017 edition

"Dramatic Creation Contest for Short Play" aims to encourage original Romanian dramaturgy, especially short theater, as part of the prestigious Oradea Short Theater Festival, which since 2013 has been part of the Oradea International Theater Festival.

The organizers do not suggest a specific theme, leaving freedom of choice to the creators, the criteria for judging the pieces being aesthetic. The only imposed element is the formal one, required by the rigors of the short theater. In the opinion of the organizers, the short piece has a maximum of 25 pages (approximately 50,000 characters without spaces), and its editing must not exceed 90 minutes, without a break.

This year, 13 texts were entered in the competition, which were read and analyzed by the jury made up of theater critics Elizabeth Pop, Claudio Groza and editor-in-chief of Familia magazine Ioan Moldovan. Following the evaluation of the texts, starting from premises related to the dramatic technique and the artistic value, three of them were nominated, namely:

  1. SUB – SOUL, by Crista Bilciu
  2. SUPER OK, by Mircea Moroianu
  3. UNDER CONSTRUCTION, by Marco Tesei

The piece declared the winner, in full agreement of the jury members, was "Sub-soul", written by mrs Crista Bilciu.

BÉRENGER – recital by Emil Boroghină after "Killer without Cimbria" by Eugène Ionesco

Eugen Ionescu believes that the world is him, and as such, if he knows himself, he will know the world. Disappointed and passionate, burlesque and pathetic, Eugen Ionescu is a lonely man. Mistrust, doubt, fear of others leads him to solitude. And yet there is in him a feeling of participation in the collective dramas of humanity, a feeling of suffering in front of its pains. He is not among those who drink without thirst the liquor of humanism. He is hungry and thirsty.

In the show at the Comedy Theater we will meet five parents who meet to judge and condemn the freedoms of adolescence, hiding their own equally adolescent beginnings under a veil of prudery and prejudice.

For me, "The Bear" is not only "a farce", as Chekhov himself called it.

In fact, this name must also be understood in the sense in which Chekhov wrote "comedy" under the title of one of his great plays, "The Seagull".

The subtle ironies of a genius.

EVERYTHING IS RELATIVE

Greg and Ginny are young, in love and about to get married. But Ginny is hiding some details about her life from Greg, which could blow up the peace of the future couple. This is also the moment when Philip and Sheila enter the story, an older couple, with unclear - still - and, precisely because of that, funny connections with the young characters. Entanglements of situation, language and intention are sprinkled throughout the play, heightening the tension and delight of the viewer. And at the end, some questions remain in our minds: is love sincere, how much are we willing to lie in a couple, how much is truth and how much is delusion in a love?
