About this work
In a dim café crowded with tables and chairs, two women in slips move blindly with eyes closed while a man frantically clears chairs from their path. A couple embraces again and again as a third man rearranges their bodies, until the woman keeps dropping from the man's arms and the repetition hardens into painful habit. Set to arias by Henry Purcell and drawing on Bausch's childhood memories of her parents' café, the piece long featured Bausch herself as one of the sleepwalking women.
در کافهای نیمهتاریک و پر از میز و صندلی، دو زن با لباسخواب و چشمان بسته کورمال حرکت میکنند و مردی شتابان صندلیها را از سر راهشان کنار میزند. زوجی بارها یکدیگر را در آغوش میگیرند و مردی سوم وضع بدنشان را تغییر میدهد تا آنکه زن مدام از آغوش مرد فرو میافتد و این تکرار به عادتی دردناک بدل میشود. اثر با آریاهای هنری پرسل همراه است و از خاطرات کودکی باوش در کافهٔ پدر و مادرش الهام گرفته؛ خود باوش سالها یکی از زنان چشمبسته را میرقصید.
