Every legend begins with an event that may or may not have happened...
On stage, the character spreads his feathers, lets the body speak and the thoughts flow. A journey into the soul begins. A recollection of memories, dreams, and echoes of stories once heard. In a roller coaster ride of colors, feelings and moods, the audience experiences the ups and downs of life. A fantastic solo piece about identity and self-realization. Bringing together dance, theater and film, this mythical coming-of-age narrative evolves through the struggles of pursuing one’s dreams. Nothing is ever done, everything is always transforming, an unending process of becoming and being whole.
