At night, when we dream, we fall into a labyrinth of worlds, our imagination stretching into new territories. We pass through whimsical and surreal -scapes as logic turns upside down and inside out. We enter dream logic where anything is possible. In these darkest hours of the night, our imaginations freely run.

In our intensive week together, the dancers deep dived into their own imaginative worlds as they also recalled recurring dreams. From these places we began to weave together a collective dream—some moments nightmare, and maybe some simply dream worlds that have no end. Where the absurd and illogical meet yet we accept the logic of it all nonetheless.

Inside the labyrinth of these collective dream worlds, we invite you to let your imagination soar through each world you enter. Welcome to our dream.
