★★★★★★“Playwright Tanja Mastilo weaves tapestries for her characters to inhabit that extend far
beyond the confines of the four walls of the stage.”…. “Another Meister and Mastilo masterclass” – CPHPost
★★★★★★ ”Stykket er mesterligt skrevet……Stykket tager også fat i store og svære emner.” – Scenekanten
”….forestillingen sneg sig ind på mig, og satte sig fast i mig dagen efter. ” – Michael Svennevig
★★★★ “The Cheyenne Are Leaving er intellektuelt udfordrende teater.” – POV
”en verdenspremiere på et vellykket krigsdrama fra fremtiden. Det er et intenst og spændningsfyldt drama at den dansk-serbiske dramatiker har skrevet. … Nina Larissa Bassett har
iscenesat præcist og detaljeret, og har ladet følelserne få den plads de skulle have uden at tage over for teksten … Det er en ganske gribende teateraften på Sorte Hest, om en fremtid der måske ikke er helt fjern. ” – XQ28
WORLD PREMIERE
”The Cheyenne are Leaving” is set in a fictive world, destroyed by a war.
Noel is a reclusive writer who, because of the war, has isolated himself from the outside world. One day a mysterious young man, Leon, knocks on his door. An unlikely pair with not much in common, soon they need to help each other find their place in the cruel world that surrounds them and take an important decision about their survival.
A newly written, intimate psychological drama, ”The Cheyenne are Leaving” explores the real meaning of ‘home’ and digs deeper into finding out how far we will all go to hang onto the world as we know it.
Why Not Theatre Company proudly presents the world premiere of Tanja Mastilo’s new play, which is an exploration of the plight of the refugee.
