The play Bar Remark is worked on the motives of the cult European novel The three Erich Maria Remark comrades -one of the most important books in European existentialism between the two world wars, but not dealing with the war either, neither with the policy of that time.

At the base of our excellent dramatization, in which important life issues are talking simply and understandable, lies the love story of two young people, which over ten months of their acquaintance, try to reach the happiness in life. In that game of love, They are drawn to other characters - visitors to an unusual bar, dreamers and inventors of amazing life stories, which, struggling to overcome the monotony and hopelessness of everyday, are able to play with whims and potentials of life.

Extraordinary and directorial experienced Alexander Bargman, offers aesthetically clear concept, Who opened up the actors space for free imagination and improvisation in the game, with which they created a play in which they and the audience will enjoy.
