“We’re really excited by this combination of purity, devotion, ecstasy, sex, desire, violence, horror and melodrama found in paintings from the lives of saints, mystics, and laypeople.” Jaime Maseda, co-creator and performer of Abbot Adam: Evensong

Earth and all stars!

Prepare for the vernal equinox with a liturgy of evening prayer brought to you by Sisters Sibyl and Sistine. This concert event contemplates the great mysteries with cabaret-like canticle, confessional, and karaoke. Songs of deviant medieval nuns, devotion, and desire abound.

Abbot Adam is a cycle of shows that features Jaime Maseda and Mark McCloughan as two sister nuns steeped in Medieval traditions venturing into wildly new performance territory. Since 2007, the Philadelphia-based No Face has created shows that take many forms, from choreography to theater to installation performance.

*There will be fog, haze, and a strobe in this performance.*
