Three characters coexist alongside one another, while each is bound in a closed, protected world of his own. Nonetheless, the encounter between them is inevitable. As the boundaries separating them are crossed, their personal baggage falls apart and becomes exposed. Ship of Fools takes its title from the ancient European motive of the ship lost at sea without a captain or a pilot, and uses movement and text to examine the fragile encounter between the human need to protect one's distinctiveness and his yearning for interpersonal contact, for understanding and for acceptance.
