Standard: £25 The Cockpit, Gateforth Street NW8 8EH In this audacious solo performance by artist and somatic traumatologist Stefan Jovanovic Kaasa, myth meets movement in a ritual that resists categorisation and demands to be felt before understood. The clarion, a winged healer, emerges from the shadows bearing messages of warning and transformation. Combining dance, physical theatre, spoken word, storytelling and song, When the Clarion Came to Call unfolds in the round across nine archetypal chapters. It channels the cyclical nature of trauma and healing, tracing the fractured lines between accountability and the possibility of renewal. At its centre is the clarion—a mystical bird-being and symbol of queer resilience—inviting audiences into a shared space of reckoning, intimacy and the phantasmagorical. Although fully scripted, this work is dynamically shaped by the presence of each audience and the collective energy of gathering. Without requiring active participation, you are invited to engage with your total attention—bringing your full self, just as you are. The piece blurs the line between theatre and ritual, myth and memory, performer and witness. The clarion does not explain. It calls. This Cockpit UK premiere marks the debut of Strange Fictions, Jovanovic Kaasa’s new performance company, previously known as Studio Stefan Jovanovic. Under that name, his past works include Constellations (Sadler’s Wells, Lilian Baylis Studio, 2019) and Drumming in the Hall of the Mountain (Derby Festé, 2022)... READ MORE>
