In one of Reckless Sleepers' most celebrated performance pieces the impossible is probable; truth and illusion are inseparable, laws are made, bent, then broken.
In 1933 Erwin Schrödinger won the Nobel Prize for his contribution to quantum mechanics. He theorised a box in which a cat exists as living and dead at the same time. In 1998, internationally acclaimed Anglo-Belgian performance company Reckless Sleepers built that box, and now over a decade later they are climbing back inside.
In a visually mesmerising performance that switches between questions and answers, chaos and order, the rules and conventions applied to everything from mathematics to emotions are torn up.
