"Where nothing is in its place, lies disorder. Where in the desired place there is nothing, lies order” - Bertolt Brecht.

Synopsis:
In the age where complexity defines the human existence, deciphering truth from fiction, emotion from thought, and dream from reality becomes increasingly challenging. Are we just marionettes spiraling within our own consciousness? Or can we find solace and tranquility amidst this chaos?

"WIRED" delves deep into this intricate human journey. It is more than just a performance; it's an exploration, an endeavor to navigate the convoluted pathways of our collective identity. Amidst this vast expanse of information in the black box that represents our life, there lies a singular entity - the performer. They embark on a quest to trace back the roots of our collective entanglement.

This performance questions the nature of our existence: Is life just an unending series of questions? And if so, can we find contentment in the unknown? Is it possible to relinquish our deep-seated need to understand, and instead, submit to a force greater than our individuality?

Drawing inspiration from real-life accounts and the imaginative world of science fiction, "WIRED" offers a contemplative take on the human psyche and our eternal search for meaning.

Dedication:
To my grandmother, Katya, who stood tall and always waved from the top of the hill.
