Aida is sixteen. She doesn't like to dress pretty or to get her eyebrows plucked. Sometimes she thinks of daring things. What would it be like to become a film director. Or to kill herself. Or to be in love.
Aida lives at home with her mother. Her sisters have moved out. Her father has another family.
She's kissed once in her life. She's failing chemistry. She meets a boy. The one with the hat who sings that song. She's already sensitive to the afterlife, but he brings her closer to the idea of death. It's the first thing in a long time that gets her excited.
We accompany her on this journey. We follow her as her world turns from grey to midnight black. But who’s afraid of the dark?
Since we use strobes, intense light and sound effects, we do not recommend this performance for sensitive viewers.
