This is the story of a man who falls in love with the woman of his dreams while in his dreams.

Welcome to The Dream King. A psychological thriller disguised as a romantic comedy. A silent musical inspired by Tim Burton nightmares and slap-stick of the silver screen comedies. The production utilizes mesmerizing physical theater techniques, dazzling visuals, and an imaginative musical score to weave this tale of true love found in the most wondrous and perilous of places: the mind.

The Dream King is an epic and delightful journey of a psyche in revolt told through movement, clowning, physical comedy, silent film style projections, a dynamic musical score, and a healthy dose of wild imagination.

Chicago-based Teatro Vista (Theatre with a View) was founded in 1990 by Edward Torres and Henry Godinez to address the lack of opportunities for Latinx artists and other artists of color, and to explore the new work of Latinx writers that challenged not only the actor and director, but also the audience.

Touring considerations: Projected title cards are displayed in 3 languages - English, Spanish, and a third determined in collaboration with host theatre.
