‘A spectacular finale to an enchanting show’
Chronicle Live

Two travellers voyage across the skyline from time immemorial to meet in the shadow of the moon. Their encounter triggers wild lunar orbits and a storm of sparks, unleashing the magic of nightfall and the time of wishes. This short finale spectacle is the perfect ending to any festival or parade and can reach up to 3000 audience.

The performance is adaptable to be themed and scaled for different events and formats. It works best in partnership with an existing event.

Partners have included Same Sky, Watermans Winter Lights, Enchanted Parks 2017 (titled Spirit of the Cyclone) & Right Up Our Street 2019 (titled Odyssey).

Reviews

‘Stand out exhibitions include the big surprise for the finale that is Spirit of the Cyclone by Periplum.’

‘From a curtain of mist emerged an airborne ghostly figure, slowly whirling and spinning. It reminded me of the spooky floating figure from Salem’s Lot but young ones around me didn’t turn a hair. Suddenly fireworks burst around her in a spectacular finale to an enchanting show.’
