KIKI AND BOZO is about the confrontation with death, about the last
journey, about the correcting mistakes at the point when one has to sum up
his life. Old man Bozo and the girl Kiki find themselfs near the sea. Bozo is
trying to reach the sea to die, and Kiki had escape from everyone becouse
she is horrified by the death of the dog Nini. Thay are spending a little time
together, but it is quite enoughfor them to realize not only what dying is, but
also what are friendship and love. Orchestra whitch constantly playing on
the stage is representing Bozos soul. he is eventually transcending his soul
to Kiki and with this gesture he is not only prolanging his own life but he also
giving a priceless value of understanding of shortness and imperfection of
human existence. KIKI AND BOZO resembles the concept of life and death
in the Zen philosophy and it is also lagerly influenced by the Beckett concept
of nothingness. Becouse of all taht, this play is by all criteria exceptional,
gentle and quiet.
