This production is based on the well-known novel of the same title by Ioana Bradea, published in 2004, about a social phenomenon that marked the Romania of the 1990s but is still to be found today: the erotic chatline business. In the world of ‘original capitalism’ of those years, young Andreea is the picture of contrast: she writes poetry and works on an erotic chatline, she wearily listens to the voices of hundreds of men, but suffers naively for one alone. The play evokes a time of vivid slang and faces us with a problem regarding the connotation of telephone (or nowadays videochat) eroticism: who is dominating whom, and what are the psychological costs of this sort of business, both for the worker and for the clients? Between tender letters and swearing, power and humiliation, the staging suggests how supply and demand, men and women, victors and defeated are just so many forces that coexist within us.
