Within Cells Interlinked at Theater ins Blau – LEIDEN

Welcome to Within Cells Interlinked - a transmedia performance that invites audiences into an intricate world of dreams, corporate surveillance and gameplay, exploring the intersection of imagination and reality.  For Within Cells Interlinked we collaborate with the Premonitions Agency, a specufictional government entity whose task is to collect, capture and analyze citizens’ dreams and intervene into them to affect possible real-life events. The performance is based on real nighttime dreams, donated by the artistic team and several other dreamers.

Several performers interact across different realities: two dreamers deeply immersed in their dream worlds: One finds himself at his own wedding, marrying a complete stranger and travelling backwards through time; while the other encounters a lost toddler who changes gender and runs on battery; And two dream analysts intervening in citizens’ nighttime reveries in an attempt to affect future events.
