12th Ave Arts: Mainstage
June 5 - 27

"...if there’s a more fun way to explore the brain’s desire to protect itself by avoiding hard things, I’ve never heard of it." — The Seattle Times

It's five minutes 'till Sleepytime and the latest set of rewrites are even worse than the last. The Director of Dreaming is considering pulling the plug and putting up another rerun of "Teeth Fall Out (School Assembly Version)" but the truth is everyone knows that the stakes are too high for that.

In their waking life, Carl seems to be holding it together, but in the depths of their subconscious, Carl knows they could be – want be – so much more. In fact, Carl’s dreams might just be the only connection they still have to their deepest self.

That's where you come in. In this immersive, interactive piece, you will assist the beleaguered neurons of the Dream Department in programming each night's dreams. Work alongside your mental colleagues during the day, and then sit back, relax, and watch the show once the dreams start to play. Plumb the depths of this unknown psyche deep enough and you may even find a way to show Carl what they truly need.
