In this space, there are 4 of us, on stage, performing for you, the audience. The space we occupy is black, lit by stage lights so that you can see us. And we can see you too. This you can be sure of. Dive into our world where 4 performers try to make sense of what it means to live in a Post-truth, alternative fact world. Ouroboros uses a language mixed of visuals, movement, sparing words and sign to offer a battle of emotions vs facts reflecting the current political climate. 14+
