Stars & Their Constellations

The Crick Crack Club presents
STARS & THEIR CONSTELLATIONS
Performance storytelling by Hugh Lupton & Daniel Morden
The celestial hunter Orion, the winged horse Pegasus, Scorpio rising, and the shimmeringPleiades sisters
Master storytellers Hugh Lupton and Daniel Morden bring to life the dazzling Greek myths behind the constellations that glitter above us. Witness the gods toying mercilessly with mortals in tales of lust, pride and passion - stories that will leave you hungry to discover more.
After the performance, step outside the Earthouse, look up, and find the constellations from the stories shining above you. Let the night sky become a map of myth, helping bring a little order to the vast sea of stars overhead.
The epic sweep of the heavens offers a cosmic, eternal perspective on human troubles, bringing a moment of wonder and consolation in challenging times. epic sweep of the night sky brings a cosmic, eternal perspective to human troubles, offering much needed consolation for our times.
