A one-woman physical theatre performance about living with bipolar disorder. Through movement, Ella's world shifts between emotional highs and lows-bursts of energy, creativity and confidence giving way to doubt, exhaustion and collapse. Past trauma surfaces without warning, disrupting the present and blurring time. Where words fail, the body keeps moving, and the only silence is her heartbeat. The piece reveals the inner conflict and pressure of these rapid changes, showing how they affect both mind and body. This is a non-linear journey through instability, survival and the ongoing effort to find balance and healing.
