About The Starlight Circle Players
Berkeley's Starlight Circle Players, Creations for Stage and Circle, is an ongoing, independent collaboration of visual artists, writers, actors, musicians and other artists.
The Starlight Circle Players, Creations for Stage and Circle are collaborating through a shared love of theater, art and music and a desire to work “outside of the box” in the new/ancient form of ritual theater. We are assembling a cast and crew to create, together, a space filled by music, live action and puppetry that recalls sacred mystery dramas of the ancient world or the Tamul “divine plays” (tiru vilaiyatal) performed for centuries in Sri Lanka. Another example is the seasonal Mummers Plays, Morris dances or ancient British hoodening rituals, such as a sunrise performance of the Abbots Bromley Horned Dance: drama that arrives unexpectedly and – in a moment – is gone.
