"Do you not want to be my wife?", the award-winning comedy for "Best Performance" at the BIAF 2026 International Theater Festival
What do you do when, after a 20-year relationship, your wife tells you she wants to start over? You have 24 hours to save the love of your life. And no plan is too absurd. And no proposal too daring!😅
Vincent and Marie have known each other for two decades. Or, at least, they think so. When Marie decides their marriage needs a radical change, Vincent enters a race against time: he must prove to her that their story is not over. In just 24 hours, impossible negotiations, jealousies, role-playing, a meddling friend, and truths that emerge at the most inopportune moments appear.
Paula Chirilă and Răzvan Oprea build an explosive and delightful couple in which every line can trigger an argument, a revelation, or a hearty dose of laughter.
"Do you NOT want to be my wife?" is a sparkling, fast-paced, and surprising comedy about couples and about the age at which you begin to understand that a relationship is not maintained by inertia, but is reinvented.
Come laugh at their couple's crises and perhaps discover something about yours. Or your neighbors'. 😅
