LADY PEASBLOSSOM’S SANCTUARY
(FOR EXTREMELY RARE AND PERNICIOUS BEASTS)

You are cordially invited to a tea party in Lady Peasblossom’s salon.
What will happen next is anyone’s guess…

Lady Peasblossom’s Sanctuary is an immersive performance involving dance, theatre, circus, music and visual arts. Lady Peasblossom is an eccentric Victorian woman who collects creature oddities as a status symbol to show off to friends and strangers alike. Each of her creatures are represented by circus artists in a variety of disciplines such as aerial arts, acrobatics, contortion and stilt walking. Each exists in its own fully immersive environment that is both a circus performance space and a unique visual art installation that both the performer and audience can interact with.

Lady Peasblossom’s Sanctuary was workshopped at the Hercinia Arts studio in 2009 and presented later that year as part of Zoofest in Montreal.
