The woman in the glass
In the footsteps of the poet Emily Dickinson
The play takes on the delicate irony and experimentation to create the unconventional poet and poetry about nature, love and death of contemporary parallels. The embodied by Christiane Loch postal workers is the link to the world Dickinson and accompanies the viewers on a journey into a world, exacerbated by the deliberate reduction in the look for the essentials.
The starting point of dance history is the glass house as a symbol of Dickinson's life and the postmistress, which prevents the flow of communication by letters steals and hoards in his home letters, wrote Emily Dickinson without ceasing, and replacing her physical contact with the world.
