Description: Growing up may be tough, but try discovering that dinosaurs exist under your bed. For twins Oscar and Olivia, that’s precisely the predicament. Amid 90s Dino-mania, the duo delve beneath their mattresses and unearth a wily world where velociraptors and dilophosaurus roam free. But when the siblings let their secret run wild, they discover the real monsters to be the naysayers who mock them. Adapted from Conan O’Doyle’s eponymous silent film, The Lost World explores the ugly phases of adolescence, the treacherous task of preserving our imaginations and the primordial struggle between chaos and control.

Description: We are unconsciously surrounded. As we journey through life, we find ourselves in various oppressive structures, sometimes as oppressors and sometimes as the oppressed. How do we become aware of our roles in these structures? How do we liberate our voice to uplift ourselves and others?
