Or, this is not Dante, just a game with those colors which have been divinely painted on the heavenly palette. The two-actor performance processes the adventures of New Testament. Actually some Dead Sea Scroll will show up as well. As we move forward we increasingly see the actors as playing God. The actors who sometimes believe they are really Gods (or divine)-not only on stage. Aron as Christ and Csaba as God are playing with each other and with us: they charmingly quarrel, evilly squabble. And this is the same since the creation of the World. Everyone is playing, creating, behaving, relating to, and correlating. It was the same when Jesus met John the Baptist, the Devil, Bartholomew, Jairus, Judas, and so on… The story is written again by itself, and it is suitable to re-think our theory about faith, relationships and theatre. Of course we realize that we are not in the limelight all the time. We are playing, understanding, recognizing, and laughing. Definitely nice to look into a grotesque mirror.
