The Major Arcana
- Artists
- Tom Marshman
A new show from Impermanence, Tim Redfern, Tom Marshman and Corali Dance Company exploring the themes of anxiety, ecology, sexuality, gender, freedom and love through the magic of The Major Arcana tarot cards.
The Major Arcana is a shared dialogue amongst the collaborators about queerness, inclusion and playfulness in a political climate of adversity, austerity and commercialism. The Major Arcana’s pieces explore the tarot cards’ themes; anxiety, ecology, sexuality, gender, freedom, love.
The host performers, Tom Marshman, and special guest Timberlina (on the 11th Dec) will select one audience member for a tarot reading of their past, present and future cards. Their future card is a bespoke, performed cabaret experience, creating a vivid spectacle for the wider audience.
The Major Arcana lasts for an hour and a half, with readings working in 10 minute cycles, with performances from Corali Dance Company, Impermanence and host performers. The aesthetic of this “game show” varies greatly from raggle-taggle charm to a refined visual spectacle.
Originally devised for Latitude Festival by Impermanence, Tim Redfern and Tom Marshman
