Shadows

A professional development performance and workshop on substance use disorder for your conference, residency, or training sessions.

Inspired by Neil Bousfield’s wordless novel of woodcut images, Shadows is a portrayal of a poor couple, working opposite shifts in the same factory, as they struggle through addiction and family crisis to find hope.  They see that every decision is a choice, but finding the strength to break the cycle is the hardest choice of all.  With its visceral, acrobatic movement and compelling story of strength, desire and loss, this one-act straddles the worlds of dance and theatre.
