Candlemas, a Christian holiday, celebrates the return of light after the dark season. It goes back to an old cleansing ritual that sweeps out the dirt and darkness of winter. Bluespots Productions are inspired by this to create a ritual rave that opens the CHURCH OF NEW REALITIES season. The ensemble creates an artistic experiential space in which music, text, light, water and bodies combine. At this mystery rave, the audience becomes part of an unforgettable party that celebrates the return of light and the uniqueness of everyone present. Let go. Surrender. WAVE. RAVE.
