Using a delicate physical environment, a live soundscape, and an unexpected use of technology, participants are invited to centre themselves within a dreamscape in which they possess extraordinary powers. An immersive and solitary experience, Good Things To Do is a meditation on goodness, generosity, and the struggle to stay soft in a world that asks us to be hard.
