We Sing, I Sang (2019)

We Sing, I Sang (2019)

This show, presented at Talos 2019 Science Fiction Theatre Festival, was the final show I did that year, and like The Perfect Opera it wove together some of the major strands of my artistic life so far.

​

Drawing on my experiences within classical music, improvisation, Noh theatre, and my more recent encounters with game-based theatre, I created a loose structure telling the story of a collective consciousness travelling across the stars, leaving their world behind. The audience chose the path we took - what was the crisis that forced them to leave? What was their civilisation like? What did they do during the crisis?

​

Thanks to Hannah Gardiner and Rosalie Warner's talented viola-playing and singing, it became a beautiful, ritualistic performance that I was delighted to end the year on.

​

I'm hoping to bring it back very soon and share it with more people - it is, perhaps, the most beautiful thing I made in 2019, and a refreshing breath after a year of comedy and political drama.
