Synopsis: Kate cannot sleep. She is stranded in the middle of the night, in the middle of her life. A Dead Man, charming and dangerous, lies on her bed. A Slave, born out of a few bloody verses of the Odyssey, sits at Kate's desk and writes in Kate's diary where Kate has erased everything. A Fish delivers a package with a warning. It's the perfect set-up! Narratives collide in the night as the Narrator desperately strives for coherence.

Synopsis: Young life, with all its uncertainty and possibility, struggles to escape from the control of inflexible, know-it-all age. Puppets, masks, instruments, and unlikely objects are used to explore questions about "beauty", the impulse to control life, growing up, the function of police, and about our relationship with nature
