​
Performers are taken on a journey from lifelessness to vibrancy and color through the introduction of music. The performers stand as statues that are filled with life as they learn to play and express themselves. They fall and fail many times to fake the joy they found at the beginning, then grow into their journey as they find balance through pain and joy, hardship and fulfillment. Enjoy the cathedral organ and breathy colors that illustrate this journey.
