Step inside The Magical Illuminarium as they return to Aberystwyth Arts Centre with a new tale of misfits and magic, of Hairy Fairies and Fairy Cows, of Twins and Y Tylwyth Teg! Two Changelings, brought up in isolation, travel through their lives unsure of whether they are Human or Fair Folk, male or female, uncertain of their place in a changing world, searching for love but unable to know who or what they should love. Follow the Folklorist and the Fairy One as they weave together new stories with traditional tales of the Welsh Fair Folk, a live graphic novel with over 300 original projected paintings of real, yes real fairies, with live music and songs from Mackerel Sky - Ailsa Mair Hughes and Pixy Tom - and featuring the puppets of Alexandra Shiva Melis, all bubbling together in a phantasmagorical Phairy Cabaret ... The whole evening will begin with a free launch party at 6.30pm for a new book by Peter Stevenson, No Fairies, which was the inspiration for the Show - the story of a small girl from a windswept Welsh island, who can't see the fairies for a head full of tousled hair and tangled dreams.....come one, come all, and bring a fairy cake.| 16 Nov 11 | Arts Centre Aberystwyth, Ceredigion Performance Details => Venue archive |
