The story is focused on a family that collapses as a result of their circumstances (a mother who is alone with her children, a teenage boy, a sceptical teenage girl, and an absent father who works abroad, far from his family). Through their history with 12-14-year-old participants, we are thinking together about how to preserve their humanity (and their childhood) in a falling family. The project is composed of intertwined and interconnected verbal theatre and dance theatre scenes, and verbal and motion interactive parts.

Plans of the stage design
I planned a colourful stage design: a family living space. This meant the love and trust between family members. As we moved forward with the story and the trust between family members slowly disappeared, the colours and the colourful rugs were disappeared along with, and only the grey pieces of furniture remained. At the end of the story, the whole stage was empty and monochrome.
As one of the young participants said: 'The love is the colourful rugs.'
