And you? How Are You Faring? 

"The work is based on authentic letters (1934-1947) discovered in a ruined mansion. Through the reading of these letters, the performance unfolds the everyday lives of ordinary people experiencing major historical shifts, such as the Occupation and the Civil War, in a way that blends dramatic elements with humor and 'insignificant' details."
