First work-in-progress production appeared at Catalyst Theatre in
Edmonton on February 4, 5 & 6th. It was a great success!
Audience members were invited to remain after the show to give feed-back
and ask questions. This format proved very satisfying both for the
performer and the audience.
It next appeared at the Visualeyez Festival of Performance and Time
Based Art February 19, 20 &21.
Moods of the EarthMother is an interactive performance/ritual that moves
through the life cycle of the Maiden, Mother, Crone and Destroyer elements
of nature to honour and give expression to the sacred
feminine.
Scrapes of fabric were used as the only props in this production.
They became clothing, ocean, earth, shroud and weapon.
Especially evocative was the exploration of Kali/Durga - the feminine as
destroyer who cuts through with death for change and rebirth.
