Metropolis

Metropolis reflects on our complicated relationship with the city. We build to control, simplify, protect, but the city, much like a wild animal, resists domestication. Lost in a labyrinth, trapped in enclosed spaces, the protagonists battle to construct their personal space against an ever-changing foe they contributed to create. A cast of world class dancers builds or scatters a landscape of bricks and constantly redefines borders in their quest for comfort, security and happiness.
