Harrower’s play follows a young woman’s discovery of language, desire and knowledge within an isolated rural community. Original music, video and lighting accompany a staging that moves between the physical reality of this world and a more abstract theatrical language. The musical material combines original compositions with classical works selected by Andrée Ruth Shammah.
