10.05PM - 10.25PM: The Psychedelic Theatre presents Moonlight Invasion - 20 mins

Moonlight Invasions cannot simply be explained, this performance can only be experienced live. It is an invite to flee from the real world and plunge into the magic of mystery. During itinerant parade stilt-acrobats and dance-actors glide among the crowd, creating illuminated tableau vivant (living pictures). Stilts walkers draw attention from far away. The mastery of the actors becomes a game, which interacts with adults and children. Their dance becomes a magic ritual able to lift the audience from the ground and take them into a dreamy dimension, with music and sound from the company repertoire. Before or after the parade (to be agreed depending on the type of event) the group splits and forms couples or individual characters depending on the technical structure of the costumes; these characters sneak and crawl in the various places/ locations/rooms in the event area just like a real Invasion.

8.40pm - 9pm: Action Arte Circus Act - 10 mins

The ActionArte Foundation S.A. is a nonprofit organization (149-997 NPO) anchored in Hanover Park, Cape Flats. It’s objective is to explore circus as a launch pad for physical and playful activities that can provide a safe place for kids outside of the realities of daily life. A space for the kids to express themselves and to build social relations (across communities) in the area. But ActionArte is also a facilitator program, aiming at creating skillful social circus instructors and professional performers. In this sense ActionArte is a twofold process - a set of workshops for children supported by Lansport Community Centre in Hanover Park and a learning site of empowerment and employment for a group of already trained and talented performers dedicated to inspire and encourage personal and social development through circus arts. It is worth mentioning that ActionArte was born out of a desire to do circus with a multi-spectrum approach, with a particular focus on how circus arts and creations can represent present stories within and across social Since January 2014, ActionArte has been a reality in the sense that Hanne la Cour and Marlin Ross along with six other young 'performers' from Cape Town's suburbs.
