Centering ourselves in poetic realms of imagination, like stepping into your favourite children's tale. The Return offers a sacred sound immersion of song and story. A multilayered musical offering, to guide one back to the love within. 

The Return is a 60 minute musical journey, leading viewers on a hypnotic adventure through deep forests, singing with the spirits of the trees and crossing vast oceans. 

The work harnesses collaborative power of space, sound and movement to guide the audience through a transformative visual and aural experience. 

The performance consists of Butoh inspired movements from dancers, Piper Mae and Liam Linane. Sustainable, spacial art installations, including Faery Portals, by Shani Bidwell and Bonaluga Art, Bonnie Connelly. Costume design by Paper Maker, Kanako Enokida. Musical accompaniment by Julia Biers. Tea service by Caleb Janniste. And soundscapes, song, storytelling and all embodied guidance by Beetle Miyela. 

Together we create a sacred ceremony of stillness and softness. Journeying back into our bodies to re-connect, release and renew. The Return is a feeling of coming home.
