How might our bodies move in 2126, and how do we want them to move? Who controls our bodies? Together, we will explore these questions and create a physical theatre performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


There is no spoken text, so you can participate regardless of your language background. Experience in theatre or dance is not required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
