No Dutch Required

In Wild Woman, Princess brings the myth of La Loba to life in a physical, visual and musical performance. In this story, found in Women Who Run With Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés, the Bone Woman gathers the lost bones of wolves and sings them back to life with her soul voice. A metaphor for rediscovering our wild core.

Inspired by African spiritual traditions such as Vodun/Vodou, and fuelled by Afrofuturist soundscapes, metal, rap and ritual, a mythical and dystopian world emerges, full of live music, trance, physicality and visuals. The audience becomes part of a collective act of healing and transformation.

Wild Woman – Part I: The Bone Collector is a poetic and raw search for voice, body and soul in times of inner and societal crisis. This is the first part of a diptych; part two tours in the 27–28 season.
