The Mirror is a performance about the human urge to understand one's self, and to reflect one's self: Alone with our own recognizable and unrecognizable projections and with the risk of getting lost in this self-made cabinet of mirrors we close our eyes for as long as it takes us to breathe, hoping to find a direction.
Kitt Johnson X-Act was awarded the Danish theatre award Reumert in 2003 for The Mirror.
