PHANTOM FIGURES, PALE SHADOWS
A torchlit walk through the cemetery and magic shadow show at Kensal Green Cemetery on Saturday 30th September 2023 from 7:00 pm

Within a dimly lit cemetery chapel, The Shadowgrapher will conjure a symphony of endearing yet uncanny characters, brought to life with naught but a flickering light, two spectral hands, and a canvas of shadow. Each figure is a masterpiece, breathing life into the enigmatic space that lies between the known and the obscure.

Prepare to be spellbound by a show-stopping shadow duet, an artful dance between light and darkness, as though the spirits themselves have stepped forth from the netherworld. The Shadowgrapher will draw you deeper into the abyss, where rabbits, in their haunting innocence, engage in behaviors that mirror the shadows' haunting dance. From the silver screen, otherworldly beings of fame and dread weave their way into the narrative, their luminous existence casting eerie silhouettes on the mind.

Tickets £15 including a delightful Victorian punch and a 20% donation toward a host of restoration projects at Kensal Green Cemetery. Please click here to buy.
