Dance to The Mystic's Dream by Loreena McKennitt

Sheila Rabbitt and Dancers perform a modern dance choreographed to the Loreena McKennitt song "The Mystic's Dream" from her album "The Mask and the Mirror". This modern dance is based on the book "The Mists of Avalon" by the late Marion Zimmer Bradley. The book is a retelling of the myth and story of King Arthur as told through the eyes of the women: Guinevere, Morgaine, Viviane and Igraine. In the book, Avalon is where the priestesses live and future priestesses are trained in worshipping "The Goddess". This dance work originally premiered at the Saint Louis Dance Festival in May of 2004 at the Edison Theatre at Washington University in Saint Louis. It was later performed at the St. Louis Choreographer's Showcase, The "In the Moment" Photography Exhibit, and the 2005 "Emancipation" Art Fair".
