What choices can one make in free conditions? Reality Check, a technique to trace the fantasy of a dream, leaned on the new interactive performance/research by choreographer Mey Seifan. Dreams seem to share similar expressions during a state of emergency, whether the reality of a dreamer is the Syrian war, Nazi Germany or the current pandemic. It also seems that we feel safe listening to the same lullaby. Does our rapidly changing reality need a check?
