Dreams of a Lonely Planet
Have you ever dreamt of a lonely planet?
Far, far away, past the stars and the dark side of the moon. A place where night and day occur every half hour, with an orbit that stumbles at each skipped heartbeat. An expansive galaxy that lives between the lungs of a 12-year-old boy...
His bicycle, it's growing wings! He's zooming into outer space, past stars that glow like fairy lights under a soft blanket of sky. He is so far away from himself, from the place where nothing makes sense. He is the Night Wanderer, big and strong and endless.
Three dance-theatre artists and a live sound composer bring to life the abstract story of a young boy’s journey to the "Lonely Planet", told through emotive movement, highly physicalized caricatures, shadow puppetry, and a simple transformative set design.
