Kwaidan - a spirit story from Japan. 

A blind singer famous for his recitation of a famous sea battle, finds himself singing to the fallen of that battle. He is painted head to toe in the words of the Heart Sutra as protection against those unquiet dead: Gone, Gone, Gone to the far shore.

Directed, and with music by - Tim Jones

Performers:  Joerg Schlueter,Christine Heller,Helen Lutz,Johanna Xenia Rafalski,Danial Rehse, Martin Thiel, Katrin Wolter, Esther Brandt, Marcel Eid.

Further details: Tim Jones (who says): "As we began rehearsals, with already an idea for a poster of Hokusai's famous The Wave, news came of the Japanese tsunami. The boat tossed on that wave seemed to symbolize the human overcome by the power of nature. On World Environment Day, our performance is a way, through storytelling, to express balance and harmony in our world, with our thoughts and prayers going out to our Japanese brothers and sisters."

Join us at Avebury to celebrate World Environment Day! You are welcome to offer a movement piece among the stones, which could include a poem, a story, music or a combination of the above - as an individual or as a group. You are welcome to present, to participate in moments of movement or simply to witness as the day unfolds. We are developing a tradition of gathering at Avebury, to mark World Environment Day and to acknowledge the site as a place of beauty, art and culture.

There is a café, but you may like to bring a packed lunch. Wet weather gear is also advisable. Please feel free to join us for a day of movement, spontaneity and community. The event is free.

If you would like to present something, or think you might like to, please let us know before June 1st, so that we have a sense of numbers and can include you on the programme

We are delighted that Suprapto Suryodarmo will be our guest for the day. Please notice that we are celebrating on June 4th this year, not June 5th.  

We will add details of planned contributions below as we hear about them:
