Performing House - CHANGELINGS

Title: CHANGELINGS by Adderstone

High on a windy mountainside sits a cailleach, a hag whose days as a powerful goddess are long behind her (if they were ever quite as impressive as she remembers).

The world is changing. She who once held such sway over the weather has been usurped by humans. And a retired climate goddess needs a hobby - so why not take up kidnapping? But the only ones she seems to be able to reach are the different ones, the ones who find it hard to ignore her nighttime calls. The changelings.
Every family has a sensitive one. What do they know that the rest of us don’t? What journey do we need to make to hear what they are saying?
CHANGELINGS braids storytelling with acappella singing, spoken word with humour, Celtic myth with personal experience.
Adderstone are Cath Heinemeyer and Gemma McDermott, musicians and storytellers with a leftfield take on life, love and climate. They weave the a cappella and folk traditions into live storytelling performance that darts from frenetic cities to lonely mountains. Everything looks different through an adderstone.
