Eunoia, the dance-theatre production is an adaptation of Christian Bök’s award-winning book of the same name. The book consists of conceptual poetry written in the form of a lipogram where each of its five chapters is constrained to the use of one vowel. It is a much-lauded work, winning the 2002 Griffin Poetry Prize, and a bestselling book in Canada and the UK.
