«High Water» – A Play Parable

Urbanite Theatre presents
a play by Darya Slyusarenko — “High Water” 

Two friends, Sanya and Pasha, tired of their everyday routine, set off on a journey by boat.
Along the way, they encounter unexpected meetings, temptations, and questions that everyone faces sooner or later:
Who am I? What do I need? And where do I go if there are no shores left?

“High Water” is a play about those who once dared to leave everything familiar behind and step into the unknown.
