A Dream Play explores the nature of truth and the human experience through the format of a dream. Anything that is possible in this dreamscape can and will happen, but what is real? Is truth an external force that everything is measured against, or is truth an internal perception defined by individual experience? What is the role of the dreamer when they are constantly being beset upon by a manipulative and unpredictable subconscious? Will the dreamerwant to wake up, or are they comfortable in their created world?

A Dream Play follows Agnes through this magical landscape and as she searches for the essence of the human experience, she encounters many characters who symbolize and embody the hopes, fears, and realities of being human.
