OCEAN/Lumor och Unga Klara

Ocean is a dark, funny and sorrowful play about intimacy. About sex, betrayal, fantasy, abuse, empathy and narcissism. About passion and friendship. About fear and longing. About what’s most important.

In a globalised individualistic world where fear, extremism and oppression spreads like wildfire, a desperate hunger for intimacy and solidarity is rapidly growing. In Ocean we get to meet three generations; the teenagers, the parents and the grandparents who in different ways are faced with the question: What is intimacy? Is it sex? Love? Just to feel close to someone? Or can it be something totally different? Does your life depend on it? Or can it be lethal? And how can someone who never has experienced intimacy dare to trust anyone?
