SUMMARY:The ReMemberers present “The Firebird”
DESCRIPTION:THE FIREBIRD – created by – The ReMemberers \nThe ReMemberers are a multidisciplinary trio weaving ritual storytelling\, global song\, and multi-instrumental virtuosity into a prismatic experience that feels part theater\, part concert\, part ceremony. Violet Southard’s numinous voice\, Alex Harvey’s resonant strings\, and John DeKadt’s percussive tale-telling create an atmosphere where ancient myths breathe again—told\, sung\, and drummed into presence. \nEach gathering begins with an inherited wisdom tale and unfolds as a journey inward. Musical traditions from across the planet converge in this awakening of ancient folklore. The ReMemberers\, in partnership with their audience\, rekindle one of humanity’s oldest customs: coming together to listen\, imagine\, and be transformed. \nThis year the ensemble tours its new presentation of the legendary Russian folktale THE FIREBIRD. \nIn The Firebird\, a poor huntsman is crushed between survival and conscience inside a totalitarian kingdom ruled by a maniacal king—the ego made sovereign. An unlikely hero\, the huntsman is fumbling\, fearful\, adaptive\, and deeply human as we watch him fall into deeper complicity with the tyrannical regime. Gradually the tale reveals itself as a thorny initiation for a man seeking his own soul. What is ultimately asked of the huntsman (and of us all) is not courage\, but surrender; not triumph\, but the willingness to be undone. \nAlex Harvey \nFilmmaker\, musician\, and folklorist Alex Harvey creates mythic performance works that blend storytelling\, global music\, and theatre. His films include Walden: Life in the Woods starring Demián Bichir and space//space. A multi-instrumentalist and composer\, he performs internationally with immersive storytelling ensemble The ReMemberers. \nViolet Southard \nSinger\, songwriter\, and voice ceremonialist Violet Southard channels haunting vocal traditions drawn from nature\, ancestral song\, and her Mohawk lineage. Her work explores sound as a pathway to reflection and transformation. Alongside performing internationally with The ReMemberers\, she facilitates sound-based healing practices for individuals and groups. \nJohn de Kadt \nPercussionist\, poet\, and storyteller John de Kadt blends world percussion\, spoken word\, and mythic storytelling into immersive performance. His five albums have over 130 million streams worldwide. Founder of BlessFest and former member of The Hanumen\, he has shared DrumStory performances internationally for more than twenty-five years.
