The melodist of my Lady
Luna Cantat
January 22–23, 2025
February 1, 2 & 16, 2025
The theatrical group Luna Cantat presents the dramatic lyrical text “The melodist of my Lady”, a tribute to motherhood.
The work delves into the profound loneliness that emerges from the loss of one’s mother. The protagonist, a 35-year-old man, returns to his mother’s home immediately after her funeral. He confronts her absent presence through her personal belongings, her scent, his memories, and the realization that true adulthood begins with orphanhood.
These initial moments in his mother’s home become a hymn to his sacred woman and a ceremonial beginning of his own eternal mourning in the truest, most mature stage of life.
DURATION: 60 minutes without intermission.
