Kayra is about the intense relationship between a mother and her daughter. It shows their struggle for autonomy and the preservation of their dramatic force. On stage is the final scene of Mother’s life. For mother and child, the time to let go has come.

The music represents the characters’ mental environment as well as the plight in which they seem to be stuck.
