Charlie Chaplin said, "All I need to make a comedy is a park, a policeman and a pretty girl". I have always kept this quote in the back of my mind like a nail; and time and life and the inevitable speed of change carry Chaplin's need to make comedy to the present day in its most provocative form. A park, a policeman, a pretty girl; depending on the time and even the place, it becomes "EVERYONE". It becomes me, it becomes you, it becomes her. Chaplin's park, policeman and pretty girl are everything, everyone, just as Chaplin is "EVERYONE"...
Leyla ile Mecnun Değil are our "ANYONE" to make comedy. A man and a woman are about to divorce. They have been separated for about six months, they have been struggling with the yoke of blind habit and the ebb and flow between avoiding each other, running away from a love that has ended and being afraid of rekindling it. Two days before their divorce, their favourite brother İskender, whom they had met the most, who had witnessed their love and even witnessed their wedding, died. The woman and the man are going to bury their brother Alexander; just one day before the divorce case. In our play, which takes place in a series of funerals and ceremonies, we watch 'Woman and Man' questioning their relationship, sometimes bickering, sometimes laughing. Anger in love, smile in sadness, stagnation in speed. While humanity is consuming the world with all its fierceness and insatiability, will Women and Men not be exhausted? Will even getting along very well do harm? Will even having lots and lots and lots of fun together exhaust them? To be consumed is perhaps to be recreated. We will have a lot of fun together with our audience with our play that unifies life and death through a funeral, where two divorced couples are like everyone else, where global male-female problems overlap with the problems of the world
