this show is all about hearts & heartlessness. octopi have three hearts and produce their own ink yet humans call octopi violent for throwing seashells underwater. (thats interpretive dance!). humans confine these creatures then medicate them for 'zoochosis'. that medication caused our heart-attacks. our psychiatric jailers called these 'side-effects'. bleak humour is proven to aid survival. a game of competitive empathy will be played; psychiatry will be reduced to firewood; squid will fly & edible-love-poetry shared with all. heartfelt is about reframing narratives & learning to grow.
Alex Kelly of Third Angel is outside eye director.
