Inside a doctor’s waiting room, observe as a group of strangers discover their reality is slowly unravelling by a patient who is uncannily not like the others…

Internationally renowned Swedish choreographer and dancer Charlotta Öfverholm returns to Elixir Festival with an evocative new work for the Company.
