Someone Else's Dream is a performance project centered on anonymous dream monologues collected from the public. Stripped of authorship and context, these dreams are performed live, with language, voice, and presence carrying the emotional weight of each narrative. The work explores dreams as shared psychic material, intimate yet collective, hovering between memory, fiction, and confession. Each reading becomes an act of listening as much as speaking. The project invites viewers into a quiet encounter with the unconscious, where private interior worlds briefly surface, resonate, and dissolve.
