Alt-cabaret siren Cion explores inner and outer spaces in a reprise of her tribute to shape-shifting rock icon David Bowie -Time Out
"A standout... Cion is magnetic on stage... Shes a sophisticated artist exploring a legitimate influence on her work and identity."- Bistro Awards
If the famously androgynous Bowie needed a female manifestation of himself, Cion would certainly be that person... Confident, passionate and fierce -Theater Life
