The production balances brutal imagery with moments of surprising humanity, revealing the author’s vocation as a doctor through an intimate, relentless theatrical journey.

Bathed in precise lighting and accompanied live by the duo Mont Analogue, the piece shifts between animal, child and prehistoric forms, offering a tactile, intimate meditation on human posture and transformation.
