About this event
A STORY ABOUT THE GODDESS AND THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON A radical explosion of an ancient myth about the moon from the internationally award-winning company behind HELIOS, ORPHEUS and THE GODS THE GODS THE GODS. A young girl watches the moon landings on repeat. A teenager makes a list of all the things they are not. A young adult starts to discover who they are. A story about the light sides of us, the dark sides of us, and the things we grow up in the orbit of. And about the stuff inside us, all the wild stuff inside us. A Wright&Grainger and Theatre@41 Co-Production. Written and created by Alexander Wright & Phil Clive Grainger. Made with and told by Megan Drury Reviews ★★★★★ "SELENE is joyous, funny, heartfelt and life-affirming" - FringeFeed ★★★★★ "Selene explores longing, resilience, identity, self-acceptance and the illumination one experiences with that. It feels both ancient and immediate, familiar and freshly imagined." - The Barefoot Review ★★★★ "A very special moment indeed" - The List

Same kind of night (theatre) in Manchester. Spread across the week, not a ranking.
A different kind of night
Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
