Zeus gave his daughter a box containing all the evil in the world, but she didn’t want it. Tormented by its contents, Pandora opens the box to find she has been made an accomplice in unleashing a world of horrors.
This new adaptation of Pandora explores post-traumatic stress disorder and how we all have our own 'box of demons' through dance theatre. This uplifting hybrid between a raw autobiographical story and ancient myth will show that everyone can find hope in the darkest of places, as hope is the antidote for suffering.
