​
Director: Kairi Kivirähk
Music: Janet Nõmmik
​
In play there was 12 characters all representing 12 zodiac signs. The main idea was to find a perfect sign, so all the signs were competing with one another, trying to be best and win the perfect sign title. The whole performance were introducing the zodiac signs their positive and negative behaviour patterns, their relationships with one another.
The solution of the play stated that no one is better than another, that each of them are special in their own way. The end of the play - everyone took off their costumes, their roles and became one with the source.

During a half a year of rehearsals and lectures with different actors, the play was ready. In the beginning students needed to

to co-operate and co-create.

Experiment was a performance project, that aimed to surprise its participants. Performance stage was divided into two: Heaven and Hell. Between two realms there was Mirror land, where was a lot of mirrors, broken mirrors and for participant to look into onesself. Only one audience member could participate at the time and it was played all together for 7 persons only. All of those people didn't know that they will experience performance, they were just invited to a place and then suddenly blind folded and taken to the performance. During the performance all actors in masks were doing purification rituals: Air Element mask purified with Palo Santo and feather, Water Element mask purified with water - cleaning participant hands, Fire Element mask took firecrackers and throw these after connecting vices from participant to the Hell realm, Earth Element mask gave a wish bottle to participant, Akasha Element mask played Gong sounds and purified participant through sound. Trickster was playing around causing trouble.
When purification experiment was over, participant was taken out from the building without any explanations and left there.
​
Aim was to surprise and bring new kind of reality to participant consciousness, reality that is full of wonders and unexpected happenings, to create purification ritual, that would take participant out from ordinary and spice up their day. Experiment succeeded.
