SHOW:
Inspired by Leonard Cohen's lyric; "There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in” comes a bold and fragile showing of an unreleased album. Telling stories of personal, familial and ecological trauma for insight and release. Melanie Eden is not shutting up. She will be singing suttas for liberation. Songs for mutual aid. And carrying landscapes of madness for as long as the audience permits.
Join her spiritual ecological cry of song, story and moving image to transform suffering into the divine.
