EMBER

Ember is a show that deals with human helplessness in the cycle of life. It is a solo that focuses on a person who is wiser with the fire given by Prometheus, who tries to make sense of his life by illuminating, but burns with the same fire over thousands of years. Our existence, which Rumi summed up in three words as “I was raw, cooked, burned”, Ziya Azazi, who exhibits in DIP terminology with repetition, whirling and progressive structure, gives an extraordinary performance in this work by using the magic of fire and flame with an original stage design and minimal engineering.
