RED LIGHT GREEN LIGHT

DNA Theatre presents RED LIGHT GREEN LIGHT, a radical ballet

Who can forget playing that game in childhood?

Here we have five guys getting together to play – not exactly this game but one governed by different rules and restrictions – but still strict and exacting. How did they come up with this new game? What is going on in the their minds?

“Hope is a verb, it requires action, and the action comes from a belief that those actions matter. Meanwhile despair, hope’s opposite, is the enemy of action. Why take action when nothing we do matters anyway?” — Prompt from our September Community Gathering “…And yet these moments are the portals to other worlds. Just worlds....
