This play is a reflection on the (im)possibility of accepting diversity and the other. The fragmented body of the neoplasm—the fruit of unstable conditions—overcomes barriers, loves and denies itself and others, wanders around, forgetting its profession. It frequently and with pleasure divides, goes through dangerous palpation, questions the possibility of contact with the experience of the other. Poorly brought up but very successful, it invites us to a trans-species transition.

Paul Rosenblatt is an architect. His simple gesture of stacking a series of low stepladders one upon the other evokes Constantin Brancusi's 'Endless Column,' an influential specimen of modern sculpture. The column's individual parts suggest Marcel Duchamp's 'readymades.' There is a disturbing tension about the structure, akin to some contemporary architecture, specifically some of the latest proposals for the World Trade Center.
