In the play Chilvot, two women with extreme, opposite temperaments meet on stage: one young, restless and brimming with self-confidence; the other a veteran theater diva, hard as iron and bitter in her later years. In front of the audience they clash fiercely, and backstage the hostility between them is open and sharp. But when both find themselves on the threshold of a shifting career, they are forced to let go of their stubborn rivalry and find a way to work together, or at least to stubbornly tolerate each other. What begins as an unavoidable confrontation, in which each seeks to push the other out of her life, gradually develops into an unexpected, unusual and intriguing relationship. The two women, as different from each other as heaven and earth and who agree on almost nothing, slowly discover a fine thread of understanding stretched between them - between the one who has not yet begun her path, and the one who already sees the finish line on the horizon. It is precisely their intense passion for the stage, for creation and for life itself, that ultimately becomes the bridge that brings them closer together. The original play premiered at the Cameri Theatre's 'Here and Now' festival, as part of staged readings of new works.
