The story of Narcissus is a timeless cautionary tale about the dangers of self-obsession. In the wild mountains of Greece, a handsome young man named Narcissus grew up admired for his beauty, yet he scorned the love of others, caring only for himself. One day, while wandering, he discovered a crystal-clear pool of water. Leaning over to drink, he was captivated by a beautiful face reflected in the water. Unaware that it was his own image, Narcissus became entranced, unable to tear himself away. He spent day after day gazing at the face he so adored, yet could never touch. Eventually, overcome by his longing, he wasted away, forever in love with a reflection he could never possess. Visual themes including Greek architecture, nature-based props such as mountains, and reflective materials representing the pool of water will bring Man In The Mirror to life on the field.

Rearrange is a mind-bending puzzle of a show that explores the world of anagrams, where words hold hidden meanings and shifting perspectives unlock deeper truths. Each movement focuses on a different anagram, starting with "They See," which explores the mysteries of perception and reality. The show then shifts to "Silent," where the power of quietude and unspoken communication is revealed. Finally, "Synesthesia" immerses us in the sensory experience of sound, color, and emotion, challenging the boundaries of how we experience the world.

Xponential is a thrilling exploration of power, growth, and understanding. The show begins by demonstrating the concept of power and its rapid, exponential increase—where every step forward builds on the last, creating a curve that grows steeper and more intense. Starting from nothing, we progressively add more, illustrating the power of X and how even the smallest change can lead to monumental results. As the show unfolds, we struggle to understand and harness this growing force. The show culminates with us mastering the power we’ve built, using it with full comprehension, and showing that true mastery comes only through understanding the forces we wield. The letter X is a powerful visual motif for this show and can be worked into every aspect of the design, from prop and silk designs to drill shapes and battery stick visuals.
