THE CEREMONY - Divadlo Disk

We wander amongst the detritus and our machines. Lonely but never alone. The gods and ghosts speak to us but we have forgotten their language.

 

Dark days need ceremony.

 

A group of theatre makers invite you to join them in the performance of a ceremony.

 

Using our bodies and voices, objects and magic we will attempt to connect with something greater than ourselves. Something just beyond. It might be beautiful. It might be ridiculous. It will probably be both. It will take patience and time.

 

This is not a beginning. This is not an ending. Though you may find both.

 

This is a ceremony of forever becoming.

 

The ceremony we need. Maybe.

 

 

 

The Ceremony is a the culmination of a research by Wayne Jordan who is a Masters student of Directing for Devised and Object Theatre at the Department of Alternative and Puppet Theatre in DAMU.

 

 

This performance is a part of festival
