'I am Breaking the Game' is a bravely narrated play, where the protagonist
woman questions the facts like honour killings, the concept of morality, incest
and rape, in the light of her own existential journey.
"Man need woman in order to realise their existence; and women needs men. But
the transformation has to start with the women, as the essence of life is feminine
herself. If the women can not exist as real women, the men do not have the single
chance to exist as real men." These are the very words of the play writer
Meltem Arikan, expressed via the body in the most radical rapprochement
of the direction of Övül Avkiran and Mustafa Avkiran.
The society, who categorises women and men under the "human" label, makes them
easier to administer. Women and men demanding their own existences, and rebelling
for their existence is defiance against the society. Questioning the society,
family, and beliefs; and re-defining them… The so called realities that are
imposed on us are to be put on a trial by our consciousness and our bodies…
