Box of Sand

Stanford TAPS | May 2024
In the sandbox of a theater, an ensemble of seven humans live through the duration of a performance as they play and create. Without a script or a linear narrative, the show traces the outline of the ineffable forces of time as it dives into the poetics of movement, touch, and togetherness. It also dives into lots of sand.

50 minutes. Pigott Theater, Stanford University.
