"A wonderful text. Is it comedy? Yes. Is it also drama? Yes. Is it theater? Is it Life? It's up to you to decide. A mother and a son. Two generations, two worlds but only one Universe. There is a lot of love and tenderness in their Universe, there are lights and shadows, conflicts and reconciliations, jokes and accusations, regrets, emotion and laughter... Sound familiar? Doesn't it sound like Life?
I'm very happy to be reunited with Marius Manole in a new project.
Always a pleasure to be on stage with him. He is a consummate professional, an artist and a wonderful man.
The whole team putting this show together is a joy.
So: Ladies and Gentlemen, we invite you to the Theater to enjoy a slice of Life together!
Ps. I kinda love you too, Marius!"

"I almost can't believe it's happening. A marvelous text that made history. Two characters who, under the mask of toughness, hide an incredible vulnerability. At this time in our lives, it's much more comfortable to be aggressive, to attack, to be on the warpath.
It's almost shameful to say "I miss you", "thank you", "I love you". We shy away from showing our weaknesses - with friends, colleagues, even our parents. But love doesn't stay away; it comes over you even when you run away from it.
The greatest joy is (re)meeting Mrs. Oana Pellea. I had long wanted to find a text in which to play, to play, because that's what we've been doing for as long as we've known each other. We love it. To challenge ourselves, to surprise ourselves, to speak when we are silent and to laugh a lot. I hope we'll do this show for many, many years. That depends on you, the audience. I can't wait! May it be in good time!"
