Modern drama

The Overcoat is a dance-drama from England's Gecko Theater. Blurring fantasy and reality, Gecko combines comedy, cinematic imagery, movement and music to create a world where the desks float, the walls breathe and wicked temptation is never far away. Akakii, the leading character, is a lonely hardworking clerk. But behind his quiet exterior is an extraordinary desire to change his life and win the girl of his dreams. However, for her to even notice him, he will need a new coat.
