BACHELORS AND SPINSTERS /A Performance in 1 Act/

Translated by Regnārs Vaivars

Premiere: 9 March, 2014

 

 

Zingar doesn’t love Puky, but they are getting married, so there! Puky is plain but is head over heels in love with Zingar.

She wanted to get married – he agreed. She was getting ready, he didn’t object. But to go and actually do it? Naive women should understand – that men, have many desires, but most of all, they want to be left alone.

 

On the other hand, why be afraid of a wife? It’s not the end of the world; life goes on after the wedding. People find ways of coping. Get married – get divorced.

 

But perhaps it’s the other way around and Puky doesn’t like him at all? All of a sudden, Zingar really likes her! He is ready for any kind of lark, any kind of capriciousness – even marrying her.
