New Riga Theatre
Editor's review
This celebrated theatre has been enjoying a rich vein of form in 2006, and has travelled to both the 'Carrefour International de Theatre' Festival in Quebec and the Edinburgh International Festival to perform their award-winning play Long Life. Long Life follows the lives of several elderly people living in a communist block in Riga and explores how age-old belongings have become their companions. Incredibly this play is performed without any dialogue! This of course won't come as a surprise to those familiar with the New Riga Theatre, as the young company has built its reputation on innovative and challenging productions.

Primo Kristaps: Worth visiting! Excellent breakfast! La Rocca Hitesh: Does it have psytrance parties? Essential Club Hans: Hey Dutch, I'm sorry for you. Perhaps your are still living the cold war? If you would wake up you might discover, that most of the Eastern Europe countries never felt to be "eastern" and are trying their best to reestablish modern and democratic way of life - the one they lived before caught by communism. ...or feel free to sleep furtheron - it's up to you. Essential Club Dutch: I have never went to latvia or to riga or the clubs mentioned. And i wont even go to eastern europe at all to have vacation or for fun. I bumped into this review, read some comments and had some laughs about the naive people among us. To those people especially, but to the others too, i want to say this, WAKE UP people, we are the West... the so called Triple A countries, bailing out the poor eastern / southern european countries. So if you go to the 'east' and even if you are friendly to them(yes !!) they will still envy you and hate you deep inside.. because YOU 'WE' have more, better, best of everything they have or dont have. If you want to have a great vacation and big fun.. and no scam etc.? Than stay in your own 'atmosphere' and go to countrys that are equal to your own country. And if you still want to have a taste of eastern europe? just look out of your window at the way to work, and watch the cars with the eastern licensplates. just my 2 cents.
