Synopsis of the play:
Our Confabulation play, is set in a space that mirrors the unsettling contours of hell—a realm where fate, power, and morality collide. At its heart is a man condemned for unforgivable sins, trapped among authorities who carry the suffocating weight of judgment. This is an outlandish work of dark comedy ,satire and absurdist psychological–political drama, stripping away the polish of society to expose the raw friction of human conflict.
The story unfolds around an extraordinary rupture: the condemned man survives an execution, only to awaken stripped of all memory, that challenges the very notion of accountability. To force a confession from a blank mind, the authorities resort to surreal, distorted rituals—a blurring of psychological intervention and cruel theater. It leaves us with a haunting realization: When memory is gone and truth is suspended, is justice being served?
