Plays for a man and a woman — original plays for a mixed pair. Chitacle's main genre. Strangers, exes, colleagues, lovers — two voices in a living conversation. The foundation of the literary encounter through a play.
Why plays for a mixed pair matter for Chitacle
Plays for a man and a woman are the main genre of literary encounters. When a man and a woman meet on stage and read such a play, a ready-made fabric of dialogue emerges between them. Not "tell me about yourself," but the author's lines — with all their inner dynamics.
Chitacle has written dozens of original plays for a mixed pair — they form the core of the repertoire.
What these plays are about
- Strangers a chance meeting with an unexpected conversation.
- Exes a meeting years after the breakup.
- Lovers a moment of confession or doubt.
- Colleagues work tension becoming personal.
- Old friends an argument about the road taken.
- Chance fellow travelers a conversation that won't happen again.
How it works on Chitacle
In the Dressing Room, leave your email and choose a meeting mode. If your preferences indicate a partner of the opposite sex, Chitacle picks a play for a mixed pair and a partner of suitable sex and age. At the appointed time the curtain parts — and you both read the text for the first time (cold reading). You learn the play's title during your meeting in the theater.
This is the main format of the project: a literary encounter of a man and a woman through a play. No profiles, no swipes.
Who Chitacle is for
- For those who look for a meeting through a format. Not through a profile.
- For couples. For a shared evening with an unusual scenario.
- For couples at a distance. A date through video call.
- For those tired of dating. And looking for a new language of getting acquainted.
- For two who already know each other. "Read with a friend" mode — a private meeting via personal link. An unusual gift for a loved one.
- For any adult ready for a literary evening.
