Beskrivelse

The play takes place over a year in several locations; Pentre Jane Morgan Village (PJM), a university accommodation; a rehearsal room in the university and a film studio. It is throughout the year of 2015. In the afternoon around 5-6pm and midday around 11-1pm. We start and end with the same thing that is slightly different. A dance, a video and a monologue/song; all suggesting that DIRECTOR, KATERINA and EMMA are related and there's something wrong with DIRECTOR. KATERINA is dead and EMMA is gone. The baby in the wedding photo is EMMA. In 2015, DIRECTOR is directing a historical TV show for the History Channel that goes through history looking at different people i.e Greek theatre, Queen Nefertiti, Boudicca, King Arthur, Mary 1st, Elizabeth Bathory, the Witch Trails, the First and Second World War, Cilla Black and Margaret Thatcher. He doesn't like women because of what has happened in his past. His main target is EMMA whenever she is working with him. EMMA is now 21 and in Aberystwyth University studying Performing Arts getting work experience with the History Channel with her flat mates BONNIE 21 who's studying Drama, NINA 22 who's studying French and International Politics, DAI 22 who's studying French and Film and TV and at the end CHRIS 20 comes in. CHRIS is studying Computer Science. The students do a lot of improvising games with PERSON and TALIA one of the Greek Chorus, as well as talking in their flat. PERSON is a time traveller that is not seen by the History Channel crew and cast. In one of the scenes there is a death of PROFESSOR PEACH, the main suspect is DIRECTOR. He did kill PROFESSOR PEACH but DIRECTOR is not charged. We see EMMA go into herself by all what DIRECTOR is doing to her and her close friendship with BONNIE. There are a couple of little scenes of an 8MM video being shown following EMMA going through her life at University. We find out at the end of the play that the camera man is DIRECTOR. At the end DIRECTOR meets his match through MARGARET THATCHER. In the second to last scene, we see EMMA as a 60 year old who seems to be confidant but the audience knows otherwise. The last three are exactly the same as the first three but slightly different. DIRECTOR is dead and happily married to KATERINA with their child EMMA. EMMA is Sirena named in the title as well as women in the play. The meaning of Sirena is "enchanter." In Greek the meaning of the name Sirena is: Sirens.
