La Compagnie Malabar Kilkenny Arts Festival 2008

A giant creature, Helios, comes to the city to tell the story of the birth of the sun. Strange immortals, worshippers of the sun, builders of light, accompany this golden insect, all the while putting to flight the dark, the silence and the empty night. Swaying rhythmically through the streets Helios using all the glory of his stature to bring his tale to the world, he evokes the construction of the sun, born -- according to legend -- of an egg created from chaos. As the story reaches its finale, at the dawn of a thousand setting suns, an explosion of light exposes the limits of the night in a supernatural blaze.
