This piece delves into the nature of waiting itself. It reflects the stillness, the anticipation, and the passage of time—where the longing for change and transformation becomes as important as the moment of its arrival. Through quiet gestures and symbolic elements, the performers embody the delicate tension between the hope for renewal and the patience required to experience it. As time unfolds, a sense of longing persists, underscored by the gentle melody of Only You, capturing the subtle beauty of waiting for something that might be just out of reach but is always within sight.

What are they Waiting for?
