Lullaby Moon is a "year-long invitation to Seattle to explore a world of dream. A celebration of the night sky, the series of performance events brings bedtime whimsy and wonder to parks and other public spaces throughout the city, enlivening and enlightening the dark time of each month. Performances take place on each new moon for an entire lunar year beginning in October 2008. " Lucianeare.org performs this large scale performance piece once a month, on the night of the new moon. You still have five months to see this oddly baffling, but charming performance.
Lullaby Moon came to Golden Gardens, near my house tonight. We were just walking on the beach when we stumbled into a strange tableau of people with clock-heads, horse and mouse-heads, people in tops hats, people in gauzy white outfits making up one of about fifteen lighted beds, and about ten or so boats. A chamber orchestra and soprano played off to the side. The cast looked like it contained at least 50 people.
