The House of the Stone that Spoke Kievan Rus princesses Anastasia, Anna and Elisiv of Kyiv travelled Europe 1000 years ago. Kyiv performers Elizabeth Isadora, Catherine Rajhans and Ganna Smirnova explore their personal journeys from Kyiv to Hastings in 2022 as a mirror to this her-story. The central motif of stones catalyses the exploration of stones under foot, stones collected in the hand and the building of Hastings Castle out of stone in 1067. Stones as a symbol of resilience. This promenade experiential theatre comprises spoken thoughts, photography, film and live harp music accompanying scenery on strings with shadows dancing across the walls of the three performance spaces. Viewers swap between the spaces with time in between the three 10 - 15 min segments to add their thoughts and pictures to the walls of the corridor space. To book this production, please email. |
