According to Celtic myth, the Gods used to get married in May. That meant mortals had to wait until June, when the full moon was referred to as "the honeymoon." Lovers were married, and used to go for midnight picnics.
At 182 Houlton, we're writing a musical about this, interwoven with stories of murder, resurrection, betrayal and the search for "the Good Life." We will give one backyard performance next Friday, June 20th, which is the summer solstice (and the honeymoon will be waning). If you would like to attend, please email guestlist@honeymoonwaning.com. And bring a lawnchair and fly spray. The show starts at 9:30 pm. Bring your friends and family.
