Description

This is the first installment of a two-part series. It follows a “puppet” forced to dance on stage, blind to the reality of its existence, and blind to the audience. The book is separated into ten acts, where the “puppet” slowly descends into madness as it struggles to understand the world it finds itself in. From Act One, innocence, to Act Ten, death, the story unfolds as a haunting reflection of humanity. All the while, a narrator, an audience member, watches from the crowd, offering their own thoughts and interpretations throughout the play. At the end of the day, it’s art, whatever you believe is your truth.
