A grotesque, masked theater production about a lady attempting to escape her loneliness. What happens when the life of your upstairs neighbors becomes your only relationship? What happens when love remains forever sealed in unopened envelopes? What if your dreams become your nightmares? What happens when loneliness becomes a pathological passion? It is a story about one’s courage to take the first step towards intimacy. This is a silent play.
