The Wind and Rain

"There were two sisters of County Claire, Oh the wind and rain. One was dark and the other was fair. Oh the dreadful wind and rain..."

Two sisters in a small mill town on the brink of extinction, a mysterious stranger with a fiddle made of bones, a river that runs dangerously high ... Based on the ballad "The Wind and Rain," come see this age old tale about sisters, love, jealousy, revenge and the consequence of change. Created in collaboration with acclaimed physical performers Brynna Jourdan (Hammer Heads, Cussing at the Moon) and Jenna Bean Veatch (The Tumbleweed Bandits), live music and original compositions from renowned concert violinist Rebecca Jackson (Vls String Quartet, San Francisco Opera), visual delights from esteemed illustrator, painter and whimsical engineer Molly Millar (Phantom Galleries L.A.'s Emergence Enchanted, 2009 TED Conference), and award winning playwright Claytie Mason (The Secret Ruths of Island House). This tragic tale comes to life with the humor, whimsy, magic, and terror only live theatre is capable of. Produced by EXIT Theatre, cutting the edge for almost 30 years and still slicing so much tasty theatre on the fringe berry pie.

*Performed by Rebecca Jackson, Brynna Jourdan and Jenna Bean Veatch
