Soytarılar | Ankara

Once renowned stage performers, Suat and Sami, now grapple with the sadness of being forgotten, and their loneliness is a heavy burden for them. They yearn to return to the stage and have been reaching out to anyone and everyone who might help. Just then, someone knocks on their door – a door that has rarely been knocked on before. An unexpected guest arrives at their lonely and rundown home. Who is this guest? Will Suat and Sami finally overcome their loneliness? Or will they be able to return to the stage?

"SOYTARILAR" addresses the loneliness that plagues our time, and while depicting the vibrant and joyful lives of two former clowns, it entertains the audience while also prompting reflection on human relationships.

"The clowns' tears."

Beneath the flawless makeup...

It's an old story, just like ours.

We wrote it, and we're also the ones performing it...
