It seems that the life of a married couple, Simona and Levi, is quite unbearable. Simona is always listening to Michael Nyman in the nude and Levi shovels his passive aggressiveness into cleaning their already sterile and very modern apartment in a house called The Pink Elephant. The play paints a very precise picture of these intimate partners of the we-can- have-it-all generation who share the same dirty dishes, the same haunting past, and the same faint hopes for a more fulfilling future and a wholesome life.
The biggest thing missing is a baby to bring it all together. After a while it’s clear that no matter how many reproductive techniques are used, the baby just isn’t going to happen, so Simona suggests that Levi try to have a baby with her friend Katriin.
This is when things get particularly messy, leaving the characters and the audience wondering, who has the upper hand in this psychological play and who gets to decide on the games we play in our messed up lives. And then the most important question: can you really trust your eyes on the motives of the characters and even on what is shown on the stage?
