'How would you survive?
'Breathe In is a hauntingly poetic performance piece that explores an alienating, alternate world of existence and the fragile line between connection and isolation.
'Enter through Paxton’s Warehouse doors and be taken into a world filled with live music, poetry and projection as lead performers Georgia Cranko (VIC) and Brenden Borellini (QLD) give you a captivating and also disturbing insight into how they as people who use alternate communication survive in a world that can be at times frightening, unrelenting and inaccessible.'
