Based on the science fiction story of the same name by author Ursula K. Le Guin, the performance explores the search for a world more just\u2028 and the impossibility of a simple solution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In 2002, George Orr, an engineer suffering from insomnia, visits the psychiatrist William Haber. Orr has realized that his dreams are powerful\u2014they alter reality. Only Orr himself knows what reality was like before. Initially skeptical, William Haber soon observes how Orr\u2019s dreams trigger phenomena ranging from the seemingly trivial to the global. He decides to harness this power to \u201cimprove\u201d the world according to his own vision: Haber begins hypnotizing his patient. But his manipulations have fatal unintended consequences. When Orr realizes he is being manipulated, he brings in attorney Heather La Lache, and together a struggle for power, reality, and responsibility unfolds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u00abEverything dreams.
