About the Event
A fairy tale performance like no other, 13 artists offer a radical reweaving of Cinderella in this storytelling concert. Amidst Sussex hills, stories from England and Iran, Haiti and Russia, Japan, Bulgaria and Scotland are woven together with poetry and song, to explore the global, local and intimate journey of the wild ash girl. A performance, a walk and a ritual, you are invited to join us as we lead you through the brambles and briars, hills and dells, to witness ancient stories unfolding from earth, ash and bone. We are also performing on the unique site of ONCA's barge, followed by a discussion of the themes the stories have unfolded. Created and produced by the Storytelling Choir, Rewilding Cinderella features world-renowned artists and performers Tunde Balogun, Hannah Battershell, Marina Evans, Sophie Gibson, Joanna Gilar, Kestrel Morton, Nana Tomova, Gauri Raje, Laura Sampson, Wendy Shearer, Fleur Shorthouse Hemmings, Philippa Snell and Heulwen Williams. Arts Council Funded.
