The Infection of secrets
-
Produced by Mystic Moonlight Productions, The Infection of Secrets is a solo performance piece created and performed by Leslie Hyland Rodgers, and directed by the renowned Richard Armstrong.
-
The show utilizes Leslie’s original prose and poetry, music, sound composition and vocal recording, as well as her own collage, drawing, video, and photography.
-
Leslie asks universal questions of self-value and potential, and searches for answers through a unique and personal story. What begins as a celebratory birthday trip to an exotic locale, transitions into a metaphorical journey of trauma and transformation.
-
The multi-media nature of the electro-acoustic performance allows the audience members to have their own personal experience.
-
The Infection of Secrets is also in development as a film.
