Game on the battlefield in one action. There is a war. Which and where - does it matter? War is eternal. Young Sapo must guard his object and throw bombs at the right time in the right direction. He doesn’t know any of this, but who cares? Unless the parents of Sapo, who suddenly appear on the battlefield with picnic baskets. What could be more natural than the desire of parents to spend a weekend in nature with their only son? Family idyll is violated by the appearance of a soldier from the enemy army. His name is Sepo, and he differs from Sapo only in the color of his form ... Is it possible to hide from shells under a lace umbrella? Will it protect the boys who played the war yesterday from a real war, which today plays mercilessly as boys? Fernando Arrabal’s play “Picnic”, written in 1952 in the genre of absurdity, fully reflects the absurdity of the world in which we live. For over half a century, this play has not lost its relevance and is in demand by theaters around the world. We do not know the answers. But we can not hide from questions. We invite you to our performance - funny and scary, gentle and merciless. Until it's too late, while you can only play about the war
