O From the Future
"It's mesmerizing. O From the Future stands out because, in a dance theater field littered with work that forgoes the dancing, AnA focuses on choreography in equal measure to theatricality."
By Nicole Leoffler-Gladstone
You’ll never understand time travel.
An absurd and theatrical re-telling of the short story, O From the Future by T.A. Stanley. The story is excerpted from Stanley's collection of flash fiction, Pulling Weeds.
Set in a world made of paper, the characters manipulate this material just as they do each other, only their motives differ.
