The therapeutic comedy “Sunline” in Switzerland – Horgen(Zurich), November 7, 2026

Natalia Eprikyan and Alexander Gudkov will play a married couple in the play *Sunline*, based on a play by Ivan Vyrypaev

“Sunline” is a contemporary therapeutic one-act comedy that combines sparkling humor with a profound exploration of relationships, trust, and human communication. The production brings together Ivan Vyrypaev’s powerful drama, the directorial vision of six-time “Golden Mask” Award winner Roman Feodori, and the dynamic acting duo of Natalya Eprikyan and Alexander Gudkov.

At the heart of the plot are a husband and wife who find themselves locked in their own home until morning. They must navigate a complex, emotional, and at the same time ironic conversation in an attempt to overcome a marital crisis. Over the years of living together, the characters have lost the ability to truly hear one another, and their habitual roles and accumulated grievances have become an invisible barrier between them.

Throughout the play, the audience witnesses how the conflict between these two people gradually transcends the scope of their family story. The production evolves into a reflection on the nature of communication, mutual understanding, and the loneliness of modern people. The symbolic “sunline” dividing the space between the characters becomes a metaphor for the distance each must overcome on the path to true closeness.

The lead roles are played by popular actors, TV hosts, and entertainers well known to a wide audience from the Comedy Woman project—Natalya Eprikyan and Alexander Gudkov. Their acting duo brings to life a vibrant, emotional, and nuanced story in which humor becomes a way to talk about the most important things.

“Sunline” is a play about love, crises, attempts to listen to one another, and the search for mutual understanding. It’s a story that makes you laugh, reflect, and take a fresh look at the relationship between a man and a woman, as well as how we interact with the world around us.
