A scintillating selection of savory suites and activating excerpts from the true-life tale of Philomela Nightingale (the inner sELF of distinguished English linguist Laurel Aricia) who takes the opposite journey through the Looking Glass into the mundane plane.
Only by discovering the Secret Spells of the English Language, and encouraging humans to attune their language to the higher frequencies of natural harmonies – can she ever hope to find her way back hOMe again. Aricia shares her archetypal wRites of Passion in the elemental elfin tongue of rhythmic, rhyming, lyrical, light-woven verse — riddled with stunning punning, sparkling with the glitter of alliteration and spoken in sensuous, musical syllables.
Audience members are left in no doubt that faeries are real; that they are living among us – disguised as ordinary humans; and that they have chosen to sacrifice their wings – to help all mortals transcend. Written and performed by Laurel Airica, a naturally-ordained WishFaerie. Her Soul Purpose is to awaken humanity to the need to collectively upgrade the English language – which is the leading software of the Western mind – so that it can literally underwrite the essential evolution of humankind to human kindness.
