Bless the Sound that Saved a Witch like me
Benjamin Kahn BE
Continue the evening with a concert [Angie Schaeffer or Why The Eye?]
Against the backdrop of geopolitical, ideological and ecological storms, Bless the Sound that Saved a Witch like me emerges as an attempt to reclaim the cry — a radical, raw and breathtaking form of expression.
The audience is invited on a powerful physical and sonic journey, one that allows them to experience the beauty and harmony of this cry as a vital, life-driven impulse.
On stage, Thi mai Nguyen, stronger than ever, moves from one state of being to another, from trance to ecstasy, passing through joy, despair, pleasure, anger… a performance viscerally bound to urgency.
To witness this performance is to undergo an experience.
This show has been scheduled at short notice, replacing Waiting for the Sea Eagle (Knights of the Invisible, UK), whose performances have regrettably been cancelled.
