THE EMPIRE BUILDERS
Costume Design for Hayal Perdesi








The Empire Builders at Hayal Perdesi
“The Dupont family is prompted by an indefinable terror (the noise) to flee upward from apartment to apartment, into ever more constricting circumstances. They are constantly on the run and their world is forever narrowing. A mysterious woman (the Schmürz) appears everywhere they go and whom they continually maltreat, yet whose existence they refuse to recognise. But the Schmürz always awaits them and the Schmürz never dies. New production of Boris Vian’s superlative 1959 dark comedy, from award-winning director Aleksandar Popovski and designed by Selin İşcan. Performed in Turkish with English surtitles. Absurdist theatre to delight.”
