Ekoton

An original theatrical production following four young people who set out on a nature trip together as an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Their time away from civilization gradually becomes a mirror of their inner conflicts, unspoken frustrations, and differing visions of the future. Through conversations by the fire and the silence of the forest, the production explores themes of environmental anxiety, performance pressure, and generational uncertainty. Ekoton asks where the boundary between humans and nature lies – and whether it can be found again.
