Rreth këtij libri elektronik

This play is an adaptation/update of the “Cristophe Colombe” written in 1927 by Michel De Ghelderode (1898-1962). The action takes place in an undefined era of the Middle Age, as much undefined as our Era, which has many common points with the Middle Age.

Today, instead, he could be insulted as a believer of NASA’s pictures. The conviction is different, but the ignorance of the prosecutors is the same.

A suggestion for the director: there are 10 characters in the comedy. Nevertheless, is possible to stage it with only 2 actors, becauseone will play Columbus, while the other will play 9 characters. That’s why I inserted in the play some monologues for Columbus who permit the other actor a fast costume changing.

In conclusion, I chose to use emoticons 😉 in order to better express the characters’ moods, considering that today, because of social networks, emoticons are almost rooted in our way of writing. Bye! 🖖
