Director‘s Statement
I bought a set of fluffy pyjamas for the New Year when it was cold, but I didn't realise that they were very poor quality and kept shedding balls of hair. Little blue balls of fur would float out and stick to my clothes, hands, legs and feet until I went to do the laundry and found that all my clothes were covered in blue balls of fur, like a viral infection. It occurred to me that the hairballs could be used as a metaphor for someone who can't get over anything, or the desolation of being trapped at home during an epidemic. It might be interesting to combine the feeling of the epidemic with theatre and express it in images.
