You Are Not Dead: Welcome to the Other Side!

Learn more at http://blackpants.ca

Welcome everyone, to the other side of the looking glass where you can take pride in yourself for being lazy and follow your own self-serving interests. Throw away those life aspirations and take a great weight off your shoulders!

This is a how-to program to releasing ourselves from those pesky dreams and "dangerous notions" that we should plan our lives and gather our resources.

Our hosts very enthusiastically guide us along in this 'backward' land where we are led to practice living in the now, spending everything we have now, doing the opposite of what we have been told to do all our lives. The antithesis of how society has taught us to behave. Wait, isn't this the real brain teaser? Living in the moment may actually be the best way to enjoy life, isn't it? Or should we lay out a long term plan? We are waffling back and forth painfully throughout the performance, wondering how much of this farce is actually our reality.

You Are Not Dead explores what drives our decisions in life, the murky veils that we must navigate through as we forge out that which is who we are.
