The Gift

A man, a woman, a business suite… That is how our play begins. Businessman Ahmet Gür is left head to head with hostess Ayşe because his Japanese guest is three hours late. But that enough time to spice up two people’s lives?

The exchange of Gifts forges special bonds between people. It cements our existing relationships, and paves the way for new ones. Yakup Almelek analyses the concept of the Gift in this play: is there ever such a thing as a free Gift, no strings attached? If not, what lies hidden at the end of the chain of exchange and reciprocation?
