Improv night with broken word, solo soprano voice, a body in movement, non-verbal response to drone noise, and electronic synth.
Foreground stare
Middleground drops
Background lack of curtains
Foreground containers
Middleground trees and blocks
Background pink
Reflective surfaces
And blockage
A narrow line of shallow
And devastating air
Gates and blinds
Pins and straws
