"At the borders of the Real and the Imaginary,
A One-Session Strange Spectacle"

***

"Four Acts, One Session, 5 Actors, 17 Roles all in one!
Appropriate for Engaging with the Bizarre,
Exceptional with Our Peculiar Existence,
Welcome to Hagop Ayvaz's 'Acâibü’l Temaşa'!"

***

"Where the scientific laws do not operate as we know them,
For mortals are unaware of this,
At the borders of the Real and the Imaginary,
Our curtain presents a Supernatural Spectacle.
Not in the afterlife, but in the fastest manner in the world,
Will individuals pay for their sins,
Our curtain presents a one-act trial.
Every mortal will one day pass through the circle of the bizarre,
We pray to the Creator to protect our humble audience.
For our curtain is the tribunal where,
The crimes committed in broad daylight are judged."
