About this event
The Presence of Absence tells the semi-fantastical story of The Collector – a recluse who has closed himself off from the outside & built his own world from the discarded scraps of society.
Incorporating circus skills with projection mapping, physical theatre, dysfunctional furniture and a unique soundscape, this story is a beautiful exploration of social isolation and celebrates the unexpected in the seemingly eccentric.
