Extremophile
Born out of a need to express how grandiose ideas, childhood memories, and supernatural atmospheres can live on stage together.
In biology, extremophiles are categorized as organisms that can flourish in extreme environments. This solo is the experience of childhood memories, abstracted through the use of “Alone” by Edgar Allen Poe and a particular costume entity representing resiliency and mental health struggles.
