Awakening is a non-verbal, visual theatre show based on mime, clowning, and aerial circus acrobatics – written for one rope, two characters, and several fairies…
“For many years I mistook myself for someone, who doesn’t exist; and even beyond years, I mistook the impalpable for the impossible. Countless fairies, neither one nor more: that is what I am, the rest is just appearance.”
