The audience is led one by one into a spiderweb
landscape. There is no seating. Within this world, an electric
performance of physical extremes and dangerous intimacy takes
place. Acrobats Skye Gellmann and Naomi Francis take us out
of our comfort zones and reveal the essence of our primal
dreams, desires and destructive tendencies.
"Illuminated by a mere light bulb
and buried within a labyrinth of strained plastic reeds lies
Skye Gellmann’s Mothlight world: a constructed space
within which physical prowess is tested and the inner psyche
investigated. Mothlight quickly descends into an intense and
captivating performance, made up of just the right amount
of elusiveness and directness so that the end result is a
piece that encourages discussion rather than denies it."
