An individual’s trials through life, emotional turmoil and circumstance, the bitter sour quality of existence,, and the battered but resilient nature of the human race.

Divided loosely through different pieces of music, the dancers in groups and pairs, knot and release,cling and fall, are weighed down by unseen burdens, and swing with childlike abandon.

The seating arrangement of flight boxes, wooden bar stools, an old couch & wooden church chairs - mirrored the flight-box layout onstage that formed the set, and seated 120 people on each day of the show.
