BLOK / EKO
Poetry consoles us for those griefs without which we should cease to be human. Such is the calculation of the Singing Queen who loves three poets differently, and to enhance their function, annihilates the medical profession, dedicated as it is to painlessness and everlasting life. Eko pays the price of her conviction and dies in agony. Blok is the great Russian symbolist, maddened by a ruptured world.  Pindar, the Greek of classical times, is winner of prize upon prize for sweet songs. Tot, a later Villon of the streets and like him, criminal, is called Tot because in London slang to tot was to accumulate discarded things, a poet’s instinct surely?  Nausicaa, servant and interpreter of the despot, is Homer’s perfect girl, brave and innocent, who believed the greatest liar of all time, Odysseus. In refusing to learn from her mistakes, she becomes yet braver in later life, for ‘we learn from our mistakes’ is now the worst cliché of our times, and she prefers her innocence, no matter who might pervert it. 
BLOK/EKO has no place or time.  It is theatre which if it tells at all, tells by other means.
