Translunar Paradise
Theatre Ad Infinitum
Tuesday 8 May 2012
7.45pm
Translunar Paradise takes you on a journey of life, death, and enduring love. After his wife passes away, William escapes to a paradise of fantasy and past memories, a place far from the reality of his grief. Returning from beyond the grave, Rose revisits her widowed companion to perform one last act of love: to help him let go.
Using a live accordion accompaniment, this exquisite piece of mask and movement theatre was a multi-award winning, critically acclaimed sell-out at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012.
"The inventiveness of the storytelling is constantly amazing, the story universal and bittersweet and the performance immaculate... I really cannot recommend this highly enough."
The Stage
"An admirably, infinitely gentle and wordless story of loss and remembrance"
The Times****
