While sleeping, the human body is vulnerable. A feeling of security and peace helps us every night to withdraw from the world. But what if social protection as we know it, suddenly  falls apart? ›The Guardians of Sleep‹ creates a quivering microcosm within  the theatre’s  coordinates of time and space. Six performers disclose various levels of intimacy to the groups of spectators. By sharing individually their personal archive of visual memories, they unfold their own life stories. This creates, gradually, a feeling of proximity and deep empathy between them and the audience. Once the narration comes to an end, the performers, one by one, let themselves fall asleep on stage. As they are falling asleep, they try to keep eye contact with their listeners, thus inviting them to take over the role of guardians of their sleep.
