A SURREAL JOURNEY INTO THE COMPLEXITIES OF THE LIVED EXPERIENCE
BLUEBERRY BURDOCK
A VISUALLY ENCHANTING LIMBO CREATED FROM THE OVERABUNDANCE OF LITERAL AND METAPHORICAL DIRECTIONS
It’s a character’s journey overwhelmed by an overabundance of options as contradictions and inner conflicts manifest in vivid displays. He gets tangled up in conflicting signposts and constructs a room of moving walls and half-objects. A puzzle that embodies the intricate tapestry of human experience and a representation of a fragmented reality.
Expressed through a combination of visual theatre, object manipulation, and comical absurdity, Blueberry Burdock dances playfully in a place of limbo.
The performance inspires a newfound appreciation for life’s intricacies. Encouraging the audience to embrace the complexity of their lived experiences and celebrate the beautiful enigma of existence.
Flow Productions organizes the show visit in collaboration with Culture Centre Valve.
