We will be working to create a Middle Eastern grotto atmosphere in the hall, so please feel free to bring pillows and wall hangings to add.
Joining us at Feast of the Unicorn- the Karkadann will be the highly entertaining and sometimes death defying Fire In Motion Performance Group. With various tools, techniques and displays of both fire and movement they have learned to manipulate fire in an undeniably awesome show. From fire chains (also know as Poi) to flaming staff to enormous burning whip, Fire In Motion is trained to spin, "consume" and blast fire in ways you never imagined possible!
