According to Paulo Kassab Jr, the show is rhythmic and psychedelic. The colours have a certain visual movement. A movement that converses with musical inspirations. The work The Great Walrus has a connection with the poem by Lewis Carroll, and with the song I am the Walrus, recorded by The Beatles.
