Imagination is Tangible

Storytelling. Magical Realism. About interpreting the world around us as adults with childish minds. Focusing mostly on the element of recreating our life and choosing to reconstruct it and how in doing so this affects our actual life.

Last performed in April at Videofag, this piece has evolved drastically since it’s first incarnation as part of Livingroom Theatre’s, “New Art Night”. IGWF is about understanding life, death, influence, love and tangible existence. What would the world be like if instead of stone cemeteries we grew forests for the dead? Relating to his own life experience, Evan takes you through his childhood and asks you to partake in your own storyline while being guided through his.
