A theatrical and interactive show created to examine what holds us hostage from meeting ourselves. A playful exploration of characters, gestalt and the willingness to lose one’s mind. With an interdisciplinary and experimental process, it aims to commit to the surreal while trying to hold on to humanity. Jet explores the edges of comedy while courageously or embarrassing exploring her many minds.
