• "Access Arts - The Divine Kiss, website captured 2004"
  Access Arts - The Divine Kiss, website captured 2004"- reads, in part "The Divine Kiss - The Evil is Always and Everywhere - is a music theatre work exploring the imagery of the Seven Saving Virtues. This is not a traditional text driven narrative, but a collection and superimposing of images with text. Although the perimeters may seem fluid, the work is structured around a base of Seven Virtues with twelve images per virtue of either sound, light and/or singing. Seven sections equal the Seven Virtues, each section to explore one virtue in its quarternity. The sections build one on another using the device of a palimpset of images to reinforce and deepen the audience experience through thematic reiterations."
