Nightsongs
What do you think about, when you are alone, in the dark ?
Nightsongs is a meditative song cycle about the dark, told through beautifully evocative and lyrical jazz-based songs, and short stream-of-consciousness poems.
The work is a response to the experience of being alone at night, without distractions, or during meditation. What does the mind do ? It is constantly generating thoughts, memories, feelings and emotions in a never-ending stream of consciousness.
Memories, fears, and dreams take centre stage. We remember love lost through betrayal or death. Anxiety, anger, sleeplessness, and isolation seem to be all around us.
Nightsongs will take its audience through a journey deep into the night.
Rated 4.5 stars by Theatre People from its previous season at La Mama Theatre.

Feedback/Comments
Enjoyed the performance, in particular Claire’s singing
An enjoyable and unusual show. Several of the pieces were very good, the music lovely and well sung. I had expected the pieces to be more thematically tied and while some were others were not. Overall though I enjoyed the show very much.
Loved the song about Paleo, Keto. Great venue.
Strange and wonderful; the vocals needed a bit of work.
