THE GOLDEN THREAD

"The intention of The Golden Thread is to reconnect the individual to the divinity within themselves. To replace isolation and distraction with enchantment and wonder.

The Golden Thread stimulates the power of our imagination by taking us back to an animistic world, awakening our instinctual need to believe

in the secret soul within.

Each chapter of our story reflects the potential inner light of transcendence,

The Golden Thread reconnects us back to the world of the unconscious where shines the source of this light, i.e. The Daimons.

The Golden Thread libretto is partly adapted from the literary works of the 16th century Welsh Hanes Taliesin by Elis Gruffydd, the Greek Myth of Er, by Plato and the 10th century Irish text, Buile Shuibhne."
