abstract:

How to talk about love when being alone on stage?
Is is possible to fall in love on stage?
Is it possible to fall in love with some one in the audience?
Is is possible to fall in love with some one performing in front of you?
Is it possible to fall in love in 15 minutes?
How much time do you need to see me dancing to fall in love with me?
Which words do I have to say to seduce you?
Is it possible to fall in love when only one talks and the other is in silence?
Have you ever been to theater to be seduced?
How much do you allow yourself to be taken by?
How long do we need to stay looking at each other in the eyes to be sure we are totally in love with each other?
Is it intimate to look at each other in the eyes when the rest of people are watching us looking at each other in the eyes?
Have you ever seen two people looking at each other for the first time?
Have you ever seen two people falling in love for the first time in front of you?
Is watching others fall in love a romantic experience or pure voyeurism?
Can falling in love on stage be real or will it always be a theatrical representation?
