About
“Who am I
What am I supposed to be…”
There are oceans where the moonlight creates a stairway to heaven reflecting
every facet of who we can be.
But when the light of dawn breaks the fears and shadows that keep us ‘hiding
low’ return.
A group of 9 teenagers struggle to untangle the shadows that the glare of day
brings; homelessness, transience, gender identity, sexual identity, body
dysmorphia … just a few of the shadows that keep them on the run from
themselves.
Interweaving true to life stories with songs, humour and hope, ‘The day I met the
moon’ is a journey of connection with others who don’t ‘fit’ and ultimately with
oneself. If we look hard enough and for long enough, we can discover and
celebrate all of who we really are…
