Performance | Nijinsky Through a Window
Inaugural Workshop Production
This performance is a glimpse of Nijinsky's life through a window. The window is a screen through which the people involved in this performance - artists and audience alike - view Nijinsky's life according to their own perspective and history. As a theatre company, we believe that there are no prescribed interpretations. We encourage you to view both our Nijinsky in performance and in history - through your own window and find the meaning that relates to you.
Early on, this piece was know as Nijinsky, Mariage avec Dieu and evolved into Nijinsky, Through a Window towards the end of the workshop process.
