A person lives his life. Beautiful, sad and troublesome days are part of it, as well as the perspectives on the future, love, hope. In the play Do your magic – There must be something to do, this person is a man, an elderly actor.

He gets a diagnosis from the doctor and a mortal terror befalls him.

It could suddenly be over. Very quickly. At the same time, he was about to play a great role just a moment ago.

In the moment of terror, they all pass him by: life's experiences, loved ones, and literary figures who have accompanied him. How often has he met death in the game? Has he always found his way in life? How often did he stand at the precipice, who stood by his side? The magic spells of his childhood Hokuspokus-Simsalabim resonate. They awaken in him a breath of hope not to give up. As long as imagination rises above fear, the shadows lose their power: Do your magic!
