/ world as we speak information/ Our nation is melting, it’s leaving, and the Bulgarian folks exist as a fiction of some future initiatives of the European Union and nothing extra. This was said by director Alexander Morfov, who formally introduced the premiere of his long-awaited writer’s play “On the Edge”.
Requiem for a departing nation
“On the sting” is an emotional, normal improvisation about what is occurring in Bulgaria. One thing like a requiem for the state of Bulgaria, a requiem for a nation that’s leaving, that’s melting away. A nation that has dignified and proudly existed on this world for one thousand and 300 years, however which couldn’t resist the brutal, grasping, cruel collisions of recent “democracy” … and its personal lowly weaknesses and contradictions. The Bulgarian nation is leaving. We’ve was a inhabitants that hardly survives within the cynical situations of some fascist, monetary neighborhood that known as itself European, which doesn’t give a rattling whether or not there’s or is not such a folks.
As we speak, you may base your self as a folks, when you handle to persuade some European applications, to persuade them that such a folks exists and that they finance the eventual help, filming, constructing… as if we by no means existed, we’re only one fiction of some future initiatives of the European Union and nothing extra. We’re solely a imprecise topic of successive future initiatives of the European Union and nothing extra. And in only a few years we’ll exist of their applications just like the Roma, the Kaldarashi, the Aborigines, the Maasai or some uncommon, disappearing neighborhood. We are going to exist solely within the tribal identification revival applications!
With “On the sting” we wish to share our unhappiness and ache for what’s leaving, the ache for the Bulgarian folks, who soften away yr after yr. The misplaced traditions, continuity, holidays – every little thing that my technology remembered, which we tried to go on to our youngsters. These values are being misplaced and solely make sense for some TV present or some program about disappearing peoples. The Purple E-book of the Bulgarians! That is the unhappy aspect of why we do On the Edge. And the cheerful one… there in all probability is not one!
I did not need folks with muddy boots within the theater
I’ve been and proceed to be towards as we speak’s authorities, the individuals who govern us and the developments which were in place for a very long time.
My resolution to take this short-term place (appearing director of the Nationwide Theater “Ivan Vazov” – observe ed.) is only emotional and spontaneous as a result of the theater is creating and trending. For my part, it’s ridiculous to nominate one other director in a number of months, irrespective of who he’s, even essentially the most sensible one, till a director is chosen, who within the subsequent 5 years will develop his program, his idea and make a theater of his personal mannequin and concept. It simply appeared to me that it was terribly unfair to each the theater and the scenario to have a parachutist come down out of nowhere for a number of months. That is completely ridiculous and pointless.
I’ve completely no management ambitions and I’m attempting each hour to do away with these capabilities of mine – this isn’t my job, I simply wished this transition to occur painlessly and honorably. Nothing extra.
Any more, who would be the director, in what method this factor will occur, what would be the program for the following 5 years of this theater, that’s one other query. They select their director, they appoint him – whether or not I’ll keep on this theater or not, I’ve been with one foot outdoors for a very long time and it doesn’t concern me in any respect. I’ve tasks to folks contained in the theater and so it appeared proper to me to not permit absolute outsiders to enter the theater with muddy boots and dig up what has been constructed with effort and love over time.
To hell with all those that accuse me
All those that accuse me of a need for energy, for administration, that I’ve denied myself and swept away from my positions – this isn’t true.
I proceed to carry to my positions, I proceed to assume that this authorities is completely dangerous, that Boyko Borisov is completely dangerous, he’s not in cost and shouldn’t be in cost, I’m completely towards this Ministry of Tradition and every little thing else. I proceed to be towards it and it’ll by no means be the identical. It is simply that my solely activity and aim was to make the transition somewhat extra painless.
To hell with all those that accuse me. I do not care about them, I do not learn them, I do not take heed to them and I do not wish to take care of them.
The worth program
The Nationwide Theater can be despite them and can exist after them. I’m attempting to have somewhat extra priceless issues within the repertoire of the following season – Margarita Mladenova, who has began rehearsals for Stefan Tsanev’s “The Trial Towards the Bogomils”, Ivan Dobchev will begin rehearsals for a play for Geo Milev, the German director Georg Geno needs to make a manufacturing based on Remarque, the Hungarian director Attila Vidnyansky additionally needs to stage a manufacturing on the Nationwide Theater.
When the theater unites round a conceptual, artistic, actual program, then the theater can be cohesive and distinctive. There are two motivations that may drive an artist to be artistic and constructive – one is monetary, the opposite is artistic. Sadly, there isn’t any monetary motivation in our nation, and the state doesn’t care about this, and doesn’t perceive the results of this carelessness in any respect. That is why we solely have the artistic motivation left – to create such a artistic drive, such an power that may suppress the conflicts, the quarrels – to be possessed by the identical artistic concept – the actual theater. /BGNES
