2b’s Rebecca Reads Nora Reads Molly will be playing as a part of Nocturne: Art at Night on October 17th in Halifax. 

The piece is a durational performance of the last chapter of Joyce’s Ulysses featuring Rebecca Parent performing Molly Bloom’s stream of consciousness inner monologue, with direction by Anthony Black, projection and sound design by Nick Bottomley and Daniel Oulton, and artistic collaboration from NSCAD’s David Clark. The performance will take place in the courtyard of the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic (accessible via the boardwalk) from 6pm till midnight.

This installation was inspired by and is a partner project of Unconscious in the Sistine Chapel (working title, previously seen in development at Inside the 2b Studio as A Kind of Reminiscence), a new 2b production slated to premiere in 2016.
