Le Mort de Lune
Tales of Dark Goddesses and Tragic Heroines
7pm Door, 8pm Curtain
Tickets $20 advance – $25 day of show
“Le Mort de Lune”, meaning “the death of the moon”, refers to the nights during the lunar cycle that the Moon hides Her face. It is a time of reflection, mystery, and magic…a dark, seductive time when the Forces of Nature ask us to face our fears and inner demons. Under the dark moon, on June 16th, join us at The Alwun House as Vraja Productions brings you its second theatrical performance. “Le Mort” is a series of vignettes which brings to life the stories of various dark goddesses and tragic heroines throughout mythology, told through Belly Dance, Burlesque, and other forms of performance art – a powerful follow-up to Vraja’s hit show “Le Danse Diabolique: an Evening of Gothic Vaudeville”, which premiered last fall at Phoenix’s Club Sanctum. Step out under the stars, and into the world of Kali, Hades & Persephone, The Lady of Shalott, and many more! The event will feature post-show performances, as well as Henna tattoos by Annwyn, and Intuitive Tarot readings by Sondra.
