Liselotte in May is an absurd bittersweet comedy about a gentle, lonely heart.
Love is blind...and, in this case, melodramatic, depressing, paranoid, clumsy, deranged and disturbed. Liselotte, a woman in her thirties, has been caring for an elderly lady for a great many years, and now that her ward is deceased and she realises that the years are passing her by without a partner, she desperately tries to find true love in an effort to give her life meaning.
Written by Hungarian playwright Zsolt Pozsgai
The uniqueness of the story comes from how a woman tries to fight her loneliness by any means necessary. Liselotte's increasingly absurd actions make the story very colourful tone and message through its bittersweet irony, the tragic comedy and the relatable misery and helplessness one goes through in this kind of emotional journey.
The company's target audience is the millennial generation in particular, but the story explores timeless and universal themes, deeply relatable to anyone who's had hardships reaching true happiness in life.
The company are a small but passionate team based in London, professional artists working in the creative industry.
