"Creating  Problems and solutions to non-existent problems can be a special  ability. Fear is a basic survival mechanism. A mechanism that is  triggered when a person is in danger. Fear is the ability to recognize  danger and leads to the decision: to escape or to face danger. This  emotion and response are innate in us. We are born with fear. Born with  it to protect us from real danger. The real problem arises when people  react with fear not only to the actual danger, but also to expected,  imaginary dangers.

Interestingly, we are able to  bring ourselves to high levels of adrenaline without having to face the  real danger. Unpredictable times, especially the ones we live in now,  display different threats and fears. The performance explores fear as a  concept framed in movement, dance, and elements of theater. A humorous  approach to one of the darkest emotions. The performance is  self-reflective and addresses all those who are afraid of something, are  aware of it, and may even find it unnecessary to be afraid, and yet  they are. Feeling fear, really being afraid, and creating fear. "
