How Often Do I Dream…

Transitus—The Cinematheque

This show feels like coming home. Katie greets every audience member personally, introduces herself, learns our names, and invites us into what she calls her memory museum, where we are free to roam for a few minutes and place sticky notes around things that spark memories.

She makes a point of remembering the name of everyone in the audience, and continues to remind herself of them over the course of the entire show. She makes you feel like a friend, like you’re all friends, and it’s very comfortable and calming.

That, combined with her thoughts on losing memories and what the mind does as it grows old, make it a very wonderful and very gentle piece.

When she says she will remember and support you, you can tell she really means it.
