Uncompromisingly avant-garde performance troupe Baby Q celebrates its first decade with a promise of outright anarchy in its latest piece. Sleepless sees company leader Yoko Higashino collaborating with a group of innovative musicians, visual artists and stage and costume designers. Among them are mindboggling videographer Rokapenis, veteran New York sound performance artist Toshio Kajiwara and costume designer OLEO, whose garbage-based constructs have adorned events like Summer Sonic.
