"I, thy Soul" is a play for young people and adults, written in one breath by Petar Todorov in 1993. She recreates the torment of a human soul who has managed to escape from a nightmarish cohabitation with an undivided body, but after moments of enlightenment decides to return to it again and give it a second chance.
The performance was realized with the help of the Ministry of Culture, the Rhodope Foundation and the Art Office Foundation.
