Dressed for Space

By Patrick J O’Reilly

Performance

Synopsis

Patrick has arrived. Fully prepared. Wearing only a spacesuit and carrying a telephone, he has been communicating with extra-terrestrial beings for many years. He is now awaiting their arrival on to the rooftop. With you. But in reality, Patrick is desperate. He needs to come clean. They haven’t returned his calls for several months and Patrick realises he has to tell the truth. About who he really is. He needs to tell you about the recent body snatching and the regular planned invasions. Patrick needs to tell you his Heart story.

Artistic vision

Dressed for space is a story about city rooftops, fantasy and freedom. It is a story that touches on the acceptance of ourselves, being comfortable in our own bodies and minds and the aspiration of feeling connected with the Universe. The rooftop is the place to look beyond what we know, what we feel and dream a future not yet told. Dressed for Space is a story for Aliens… which means for everyone…because we are all alien.. depending on how you view yourself and others. Dressed for Space is a story about embracing who you really are.
