Description
A miniature choreography of visual poetry, objects and body parts, Book of Dew weaves a spider web of fantastical fragments: water droplets, a river in the air, glistening stardust – the dew of transient experience emerges and evaporates under sunrise. At the intersection of puppetry, installation, and non-linear storytelling, this intimately-staged performance features a single wall, in which doors of ephemerality open and close to reveal fleeting glimpses of visceral imagery and dancing poems. Abstraction and physicality collide in a striking montage of fantasy and contemporary folklore.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

It’s a beautiful and creative work unlike anything I’ve seen yet at the Fringe. The sound design and score especially, really gorgeous— five stars for this team!

A poetic, semi-abstract meditation on ephemera and the beauty of small moments. With... Puppets? There is some light narrative but the show is primarily vibes-based and relies heavily on building atmosphere using gentle audio and visual cues so if you're expecting a rip-roaring ride you'll be disappointed. Soothing and unexpected.

A beautiful beautiful transfixing show. It is absolutely gorgeous and such a lovely way to spend an hour in your afternoon. Please go see this show, it's sweet, and cute, and meditative, and a great escape from the hustle of the fringe.

A very delicate work about hands, time, and love. A tactile piece with a great experience. I sat there crying happily. The text is really delicate. Might be my favorite show of this year's Fringe. My tears can be a part of dew!
