Annette and Oliver, two fragmented characters struggle for survival and understanding in this multi-media dance piece, inspired by choreographer Regina Nejman’s own experiences teaching in a psychiatric outpatient program. Methodical and meditative movements combined with a deconstructed soundscape will fill the stage creating a dream-like environment and a search for balance accented throughout by a sense of humor.
