A Moment in Eternity
Time is the only constant. This production will capture the journey of an individual as they negotiate their pursuit for the proverbial fountain of youth. Along the journey, we’ll witness time passing during the day, as seasons, in dreaming and waking states. As people fall in love, we see time slowing down. As people engage in war, we see time speed up. At the end of a long journey, we must live in the present to make the most of our world, relationships, and aspirations.
