Half of the Moon

A circus arrives at the edge of a city. A tightrope stretches across the dark. For a moment, anything feels possible. Volcano presents the first English language staged reading of Half of the Moon by Roland Schimmelpfennig, one of the most influential playwrights of our time. In Half of the Moon , the travelling circus Narva offers audiences something rare: the chance to believe in transformation. But when the moment of magic takes an unpredictable turn, what remains? A meditation on expectation, illusion, and the fragile space between hope and reality, this work invites us to consider how more than one thing can be true at the same time.
