The Ceremony
About this event
Welcome to The Ceremony. Thank you. You’re welcome.
An experimental, interactive ritual – part sermon, part group therapy, part comedy show. Not a cult.
Crafted afresh from audience responses, the show changes every time it’s performed. We rummage through our collective pasts/presents/futures/other to see what kind of ceremony emerges. Or is that the ceremony? Does this mean anything? What does meaning mean? Hmm.
Take a seat. Contemplate your life. Contemplate my life. Join me. And let The Ceremony begin…
