Sounds - A Salih Bademci Theater Play

Age Limit: 8+

On stage, a young man tells us about his special area of interest: sounds.

He speaks directly to us, as if giving a presentation.

The long table at the center of the stage is almost like a technical center. Various tools, devices, objects, photographs, recordings…

He talks about the effect sounds have on him.

Starting with his childhood, he shares with us how his interest in this subject developed.

At first, the things he tells us seem very personal.

But as the narrative progresses, we realize how important a place sounds hold in our collective memory.

Along with him, we hear the sounds he describes. We hear them not only with our ears, but with our memory, emotions, and intuition
as well.

We almost “remember” even sounds we have never heard before.

Sounds of the present, sounds from our childhood, sounds that existed centuries ago. They all merge, separate, collide,
transform, and take us on a journey together.

The young man follows the sounds of the city where he lives, and we follow him.

Personal history turns into a shared history that we all share together.

Through what we hear, we confront what we have forgotten, notice what we have grown accustomed to, and listen to what we have passed by
…

We get to know a city all over again.
