📱 eBook en inglés LIZ COMES TO TEA

In this witty and meta-theatrical comedy, we meet Liz, a vivacious actress in her seventies, who is coming to tea at her neighbors flat - Adi and Fred. An expat writer, Fred has traded his career for full-time parenthood and a more domestic life. Their pleasant afternoon takes an unexpected turn when Liz, finding herself alone with Fred, plants a seemingly innocent seed: he should write a play. This simple suggestion transports them both into the world of the play itself. The comedy unfolds as Liz and Fred grapple with the unsettling reality that they are not flesh and bone people, but characters, living and breathing within a story crafted by Fred. This leads to a clever and humorous exploration of identity and the art of drama. The central conflict intensifies when Liz directly confronts Fred, demanding to know the purpose of the play. Fred, however, has no answer. This lack of direction pushes the play s tone from a lighthearted comedy to a more profound and tragic conclusion. The drama reaches a poignant climax with Fred s untimely demise. In the wake of this tragedy, Liz discovers the true purpose behind it all, with help from Adi. Ultimately, the play asks: what can theater tell us about our human condition? It deftly explores what it means to act, to write, and to be human, all while questioning the boundaries between life and art.
