To the tunes of Little Girl Blue, rock and Jimmy Page's solos, in a rainy Bucharest, in the imaginary pub called Club 27, Janis prepares to close the bar and celebrate her birthday alone, with a bottle of beer and an infinite longing for a father she misses.

Everything changes when Arti, her childhood best friend whom she hasn't seen in nine years, enters the pub. Together, time dilates in memories and leaps into the past, to a small provincial town on the banks of the Danube, when life was whole and the world seemed a little simpler.

„"There are moments in life when a huge, invisible hand takes you from where you are and carries you to a better place. That's how I feel about this show. The joy I feel in making it, I hope will be contagious for the audience. It is a manifesto for love, for longing, for friendship, for everything that is pure and beautiful in our world. CLUB 27, a powerful and warm show like a hug between two people who haven't seen each other for too long. I think it's the most moving show I've directed so far, the closest to my soul, to who I really am." – Alex Bogdan
