Tide

“If you set out in this world, better be born seven times. 
Once, in a house on fire, 
once, in a freezing flood, 
once, in a wild madhouse, 
once, in a field of ripe wheat, 
once, in an empty cloister, 
and once among pigs in sty. 
Six babes crying, not enough: 
you yourself must be the seventh.” 
(From the poem ‘’Seventh’’ by Attila József)

The play concerns itself with the issue of living together. 
Two shunned/outsider travellers speak to seeing eyes and hearing ears amidst tragedy and comedy from the quiet heart of the absurd.
