"Director Bina Haralampieva has brought together some of the best actors
from Little City Theatre. The music is especially interesting - Assen Avramov.
The set is devised to allow the actors the freedom of making the most of the
space. This piece works."

"Three
women of different generations struggle through life at the Little City Theatre.
They are the main characters of Teodora Dimova's new play "Without Skin".
The company's manager is director of this openly feministic work in which
the men try to live up to their partners but in vain. And so they find retreat
in escaping all over the world. Zara (an excellent Aneta Sotirova) is a musician
who many years ago chose the violin over the family. Her husband leaves her
to find work abroad just to spite her, and her children are alienated. The
only person who courageously tells her the truth is her mother (Ilka Zafirova).
The daughter (Svetlana Bonin) falls in love with Jess (Martin Karov) whom
she finds having paid sex with her mother. The sone Naum (Petar Kalchev) wins
an award for poetry in Bologna and he too decides to travel. Everything is
taking place here and now, the characters claim that our life sucks, that
it is grey and dismal. One of the messages of "Without Skin" though
is that we ought to stay if we want the state to be. "I try to analyze
what happened to us over the past 13 years. Everyone has paid the transition
in blood, but there seems to be no end of it. and meanwhile we are growing
older with the feeling of failure," Teodora Dimova says.
