"LIQUID SKY is a new piece of visual theatre exploring the interface between sonic art and aerial circus, within a laser light scenography. Titled as an homage to the cult 80s movie and a famous laser visual effect, the performance takes inspiration from Doris Lessing’s feminist Sci Fi novel ‘The Marriages Between Zones Three, Four, and Five’ about an epic escape to enlightenment.”
Audiences are immersed in an otherworldly environment that sits between an AV concert and a live art happening. Hypnotic and ritualised movement on the ground and in the air is paired with a ‘Dark wave’ live set from Alicia Matthews (SUE ZUKI), whose throbbing synthetic hymns and mesmeric vocals will raise the congregation into a fizzing euphoria"
Liquid Sky premiered at Take Me Somewhere, Tramway Glasgow in 2018.
It was developed in conjunction with Feral, MHz Productions, Take Me Somewhere, Creative Scotland, Cirkus Cirkor and Arts Council Sweden.
