INTERLUDE
Should I stay or should I go?
Interlude (translation: period; section; interlude, intermezzo) is a play about going and staying. Mel loves the sea and is afraid of houses, especially those with balconies. Her premise is that going is easy and staying is hard. However, all the things associated with going are also hard. Hurting people, for example. It's easy to sleep with someone, maybe it's even easier to laugh about forgetting the person's name. It's hard to admit to yourself that you've been lost in the anonymity of sex. It's easy to ask for someone else's absolution, it's hard to give it to yourself. A life that you don't live is full of possibilities and secrets, moments that you will never experience. You know they exist, these moments. Pale, like the fading lines of a stamp that get thinner every time you wash your hands.
Despair is okay. Mistakes are okay. Decisions are okay.
