Reading: The Moon Princess
The Moon Princess was part of an installation by Jo Devadason, a poet with Down’s Syndrome, called Poetree — a collection of Devadason’s poems that reflect her love for books, imaginary play and self-expression. Take a step into Devadason’s world that is painted in tomato red, lemon yellow and twilight blue and where the moon princess resides. A live recitation of the poem was presented in Propose-A-Parklet 2020, and also inspired a dance by Diverse Abilities Dance Collective (DADC) in a choreography by Liz Lea (Australia) titled Moon Shadow, as part of Speaking With Hands 2019. Please check the AFCC website for the date and time of this programme.
