Premiere: 28 November 2020 (İstanbul)

(IKSV Istanbul Theater Festival) 

 

The team at Mekan Artı, which has taken the audience through different theatrical journeys in the city before with their site-specific game projects, is now turning İstiklal Street into a ‘playground’. In The Recall, the audience will explore the hundred-year-old life story of the retired journalist Aret on a tour of this historic street in Beyoğlu, discovering its forgotten, secret and hidden places. People passing down the street will be part of the play in which the audience will participate through headphones and on foot. That which exists will be intertwined with fiction and the text with reality. Faced with different scenes in different venues to visit throughout the play, the audience will embark on an exciting adventure to realize Aret’s last wish, taking an original stroll both inside of and in the memory of the city.
