At the same time emerged theTTT Initiative, Troppo Theatre Tandem or equally Trust in Truth in Theatre. "Kiki and Bozo" is piece about confrontation with death, about last journey, about correcting mistakes in the point when you have to even the score. An old man Bozo and the girl Kiki are near the sea. Bozo is going to the sea to die, and Kiki escaped from everyone because she is afraid of the death of her dog Nini. They spend little time together, but it’s enough for them to realize what death is, but also what are the friendship and love. Orchestra that plays all the time on the stage represents the soul of the old man Bozo. He eventually gives his soul to Kiki and with that gesture he is not only giving himself a new lease on life but he also gives to Kiki priceless value of understanding that the main characteristics of life are that it is momentary and imperfect. Play "Kiki and Bozo" is very resembling to the concept of life and death in the Zen philosophy and there is a lot of influence of Beckett's conception of nothingness. Because of all that, this play is by all criteria exceptional, gentle and quiet. We are simultaneously making stage productions both in Serbian and English languages, so we could perform also outside the Serbian-speaking countries. We are making this performance to be easy moved from stage to stage and we are hoping that it will last long telling its story about death.
