THE DREAM EATERS

The Dream Eaters is an intergenerational dance theatre piece and cultural project that explores trauma, imagination, healing and hope. The Dream Eaters theme explores dreams and nightmares and the transformation of the mind, body and spirit. Weaving a bold and compassionate tale, The Dream Eaters examines the roots of fear, brain function, and the community powers of healing. The mind is a powerful landscape. Research into neurobiology uncovers the resemblance of neural pathways to tree roots. Santiago Ramón Cajal (1852-1934) was the Nobel Prize-winning neuroscientist who mapped neural pathways for the first time. In the show, his tree-like illustrations create a powerful and provocative landscapes upon which a group of people travel as we explore the expanses of the mind. Together they move through life cycles of trauma, imagination, and hope.
