The Greek-speaking Theatre School EPI SKINIS presents its new theatre production
TOC TOC, by Laurent Baffie.
A fast-paced contemporary comedy that has enjoyed great international success, approaching human psychology, obsessions and the need for communication with humour, boldness and tenderness.
The performance is presented in Greek, with German and English surtitles.
SYNOPSIS
Six strangers find themselves in the waiting room of a renowned psychiatrist.
They all have appointments at the same time.
They all suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorders.
Yet none of them is the same.
Obsessions with cleanliness, order, numbers, words, sounds and repetition. Habits that may seem manageable in everyday life, but when forced to coexist in the same space, trigger conflict, chain reactions and unpredictable situations.
The doctor is late.
As the waiting time stretches on, the characters are forced to interact, coexist and confront not only the obsessions of others, but also their own. Through rapid-fire dialogue and comic clashes, the fragility, loneliness and deep need for acceptance hidden behind each behaviour are gradually revealed.
TOC TOC is a comedy that laughs at human weaknesses without ridiculing them. A performance that begins with abundant laughter

TOC TOC is a comedy that laughs at human weaknesses without ridiculing them. A performance that begins with abundant laughter and subtly leads to recognition and identification.
Because, in the end, no one is as “normal” as they believe.
