GRAND FESTIVAL OPENING WITH CRAGG VALE GAMELAN IN "VOYAGE" |
Several years ago Cragg Vale Gamelans show "Revelation" attracted large crowds who enjoyed the spectacle of the enormous smoke-breathing dragon and the 18 high skeleton. This year once again Gamelan Street Theatre will open the festival this time with their brand new show Voyage. The story of a small childs magical sailboat journey to strange lands inhabited by weird and fearsome mythical creatures. With the aid of a grant from the Millennium Festival Fund the gamelan has created a new street theatre performance to take on tour around the region and beyond. The creation of Voyage has involved around 40 local people who have designed, built, devised, directed, choreographed, composed and rehearsed for this premiere performance. Saturday June 16, 1.00 on the Marina admission free. |
