Did you know that deep in the magical woods lives a spectre that lures passers-by, enchants them, and then takes control of their bodies? A tale told without a single word, all is said through movement. The story of an individual who embarks on a journey of adventure, a journey full of creatures hiding in the shadows. Where danger lurks around every corner and where you never know who you can trust. Can our hero survive this battle with the supernatural world? Not alone. He’ll need your help! And that’s why we’re looking for brave men who will stand up to fear and evil. Fearless individuals who win against themselves and turn bad ends into happy ones.
We’re looking for a hero for the story. Maybe that’s you but let’s ask first: Are you afraid of the dark?
Nonverbal.
