The Bone Keeper is hibernating now... But available for performances at retreats, and for schools as an example of devised theatre.

In Wanaka beside the lake are amazing driftwood constructions such as the Bone Keeper herself would live in... At the beach just past Ironside Hill...

This Saturday evening -

The Adult Education Trust is pleased to host
THE BONE KEEPER’S STORY
Performed by Helen Moran
Written by Kathleen Gallagher and Helen Moran
This solo piece developed out of a two year devising process inspired by the Clarissa Pinkola Estes story SKELETON WOMAN. Kathleen and Helen then reworked the material into a contemporary New Zealand myth, searching for resonances from this land and their shared Celtic heritage as they developed this powerful and evocative portrayal of one woman’s story of reconciliation, the gradual acceptance of life, loss, loneliness and the ultimate destination for all of us, the journey beyond...
“DEEPLY POETIC”
“FOOD FOR HEARTAND MIND”
-Theatre review
“An intense convincing work of no small merit”
- Magdalene Aotearoa Wellington

Date: Saturday, 11 August (If there is enough interest we would look at a second performance on Friday, 10 August. Please let us know as soon as possible if you would prefer this evening.)
