"13 Dreams of a Dying Clairvoyant" is an intermedia exploration of the cycles of life and death, as seen through the eyes of nearly 40 dancers, musicians and video artists. Throughout the evening, performers periodically “hatch” from twelve different mobile containers. Upon emerging from a container, each group presents their own autonomous music, dance, or video performance. These varied performances are unified by the theme “dreams: life cycle/death cycle,” as well as costuming, space, and a strict time score that dictates when and for how long a group performs. Repetition of each individual piece, along with the unique theatrical setup of the Metro, allows the audience to explore various perspectives and to come and go as they wish.
