Discover a surreal tragedy in this visually stunning performance from emerging star of European theatre, Mario Banushi.Mario Banushi invites us into his family’s Albanian restaurant, the Taverna Miresia, for a surreal exploration of memory and grief.

Banushi's larger-than-life father has recently passed away, leaving behind Mario and his sisters - Bella and Anastasia - to confront the ghosts of their past.In Banushi’s wordless, visually stunning performance, domestic spaces take on a dreamlike quality.

Surreal flashbacks are underscored by the haunting vocals of Greek singer, Savina Yannatou - from an Albanian lullaby to improvised laments.Recently awarded the Silver Lion Award at the Venice Biennale, Banushi is an emerging artist shaping the future of European theatre.

His unsettling yet sublime performance pushes boundaries, merging Greek tragedy with ancient Balkan rituals and a cinematic aesthetic.Non-verbal performance
