Entering, alone.
It’s dark.
There is an aperture of light in the corner and a sign to the left of the room that has the words, “no despair”.
dark,
very, very dark,
profiles
three bodies. holding, tapping
tap, tap
Back on back, surrendering, trusting
Corridors of light
A cross of light, becomes a cradle for where the sounds of tussling and giggling come from
The shuffling of bodies,
Voices,
Entangled,
Dragging and vibrating
The light flickers and shakes
The light is disappearing,
Darkness revealing different versions of ourselves, permission for expression, permission for freedom
The tones of the room feel pressured, inescapable,
Palms press together, grab and clasp,
eyes to eyes,
silhouettes,
shadows,
Hands,
violent,
The rest of the room drops away,
The release, with no more light,
Darkness invoking ways of trust, ways to be together, ways to take risks
Bringing us closer to our senses and sensations.
The sensation of privacy and liberation.
It’s the opposite of office lights, designed to be efficient, alert, ready to work, in full view
The audience sits in the darkness, embracing the softness and mystery that comes with the darkness.
We receive fragments of bodies, landscapes, the walls around the room light up, showing the black walls.
As humans we are drawn to light and movement.
