WHERE DOES TOMORROW GO? presents itself as a plan to escape time, threatening the moral ideas we have of good and evil, making the spectators hostages of themselves, in a parallel universe where the audience is pushed on a poetic, erratic and unpredictable path. This is a show about people lost in time who set out to pause their lives to meet the audience in the present and say: "This is the torn page of the book I didn't write."

SYNOPSIS
Counting the end in order to have a good beginning: on certain days, I avoid talking about bitterness so as not to be overcome by impatience. But you see, you understand: there is a guarantee for suffering, for boredom and evil, and if a man fails to meet this measure, what cross will you put on his shoulders? I move forward in emptiness: I have with me the awakening of any day. The day is sky. The day is land, drifting, where waves like deserts in the wind mix between us. I’m going to spend a very slow weekend, enjoying the heat.
