Lunar-tic

"Lunar-tic"

"Truly a class act" - Nadine Senior (MBE)

 

"Lunar-tic" is a solo that explores induced experiences of what some may describe as "craziness". Stimulated by nature's cycles, specifically those created by the influence of the moon, Lunar-tic portrays the prisons and the freedoms of cyclical transitions and those revolving states which are beyond our control.

 

"Lunar-tic clearly embodied those times when you go a bit mad, when you feel trapped by your own body, all due to biology, the moon, whatever. I cannot think of any other piece of art I've seen that addresses this issue!" - Lindsey Clarke, Editor, Londonist

 

"Bathed in luminescence, a door seems to open to another reality, always present, but rarely witnessed." - Russell E Dicarlo
