One morning, I woke up and I didn't know who I was. I felt free. Then I remembered.
This is a series of short, formal works for theatre. Not quite scenes and not quite poems, each work looks at an aspect of theatre: video, light, audio, text, rhythm. Each one explores how they can be recombined in new ways.
Loosely draped over this framework are themes of memory, distance and identity. In a time where being ‘someone’ seems important, what would it mean to be no one?
Please consider attending this event and supporting the development of experimental theatre. Your presence makes the work.
A Q&A will follow this presentation.
