SPILL | Festival of Performance

Friday 2 and Saturday 3 November, 9.30pm

Empress Stah in Space

This world première is part of an ongoing project with a long-term ambition; to create a performance in outer space. The performance is set at the 'Edge of chaos', and will attempt to create a lens to gaze into the essence of the human experience.

The narrative has been transcribed through trance and writing sessions between Empress Stah and seminal artist Ron Athey, which took place at Bentwaters, the site of the biggest, purported, UFO/Military incident in Europe.

Expect interactive 3D animations, video mapping projections, colour changing inflatables, couture costuming, gravity defying performance and an eclectic soundtrack with original music by electro clash super star, Peaches (The Teaches of Peaches, I Feel Cream).

Hailing from the underground cabaret circuit, Empress Stah delivers genre defying performances that fuse sublime aerial artistry and thought provoking acts. Ron Athey is an internationally renowned performance and body artist from Los Angeles.

Age guidance 16yrs+.
