This piece is based on the novel Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf. It focuses on two characters from the novel, Peter & Clarissa. Shadows are projected into a room from figurines rotating atop of an old turntable. A soundtrack accompanies the piece. It has four tracks that the viewer can choose to play. They are based on excerpts from the text to recant the scenes Woolf creates of emotional life of these two people, from dancing to dread.
