All’s well that ends well? But what does a good ending even look like? And can an ending ever truly be good? After all—our whole lives, we fight for life, and then, suddenly, we’re supposed to let go? And what does God have to say about that?
“Let My Hand Be The Hand” is the final part of the “Tumor” trilogy, a series of strongly physical performances that delve into our relationship with illness through striking audiovisual and theatrical expression. With both tenderness and intensity, it guides us through the final chapter of life—where emotions run deep, magic shimmers, humor surprises, and epiphanies crackle like sparks in the dark.
Because if there’s still time, isn’t that a gift?
Inspired by personal experiences in hospice volunteering and conversations with experts and patients in palliative care, the piece opens a dialogue about our fear of death, our longing not to face it alone, and the role of spirituality in it all. A shape-shifting theatrical experience blending performance, dance, musical, and storytelling—like a mystical meditation on dying, with just the right touch of adrenaline.
