On June 18th, 2022, Noctiluca Arts presented their second show at the Independent Theatre: Strange Dreams
Slip into a strange dream of flute, oboe and piano music as we drift through melodies, poetry and works that range from the rhythmic folkiness of Ligeti mixed with slithery Francaix, to cloudy Goosens, to lonesome Britten, to Australian composer Andrew Howes, interspersed with new poetry contributed by Sydney school students.
