AŞK BİTER Mİ?
A Man and a Woman…
They share a past, a present that never truly passed, and a future they constantly debate.
A man and a woman meet, and their journey begins.
Impossible poems and songs fall between them…
In this play, the man and the woman do not only live out their own stories; they also transform into characters who recite the poetry and sing the songs of some of our most iconic poets, bringing to life the real love stories that shaped our literature.
At times, they embody Attilâ İlhan, Orhan Veli, Cemal Süreya; at other times, Didem Madak, Maria Missakian, Sıdıka Su—great poets who have touched our souls and given voice to our deepest emotions.
Two former lovers reunite after years apart, facing each other once again, seeking an answer to the question:
DOES LOVE EVER END?
For some, love never ends.
For others, love always ends.
And for some, if love truly exists, whether it ends or not—it is still love.
Because love is human, and love is a mirror of the soul…
With its compelling story and the mesmerizing recitations and songs performed by Kerem Alışık and Evrim Alasya, this play invites the audience to reflect on their own experiences of love.
