The Snow Beast

Show/Audiobook written by Jack Dean
Music by Lucie Treacher

Lucie wrote and performed the music for The Snow Beast in 2021, touring to a variety of theatres around the South of England in the Winter of 2021.
“In the snowy town of Seldomberg test tubes bubble, experiments explode and new inventions whirr at the annual science fair. With nothing but her mother’s old research book, her owl assistant Maude and her sense of adventure to help her, Faina sets off on an action packed exploration, encountering extraordinary spectacles and mountainous obstacles as they battle through the wild, wintry wilderness in search of the truth.”

A point & click poetry game. Or perhaps a click-able dream? A virtual circus show, or a dream you had once, long forgotten, found again on your computer screen...
Use your lucid powers to click and sleep-stumble through a series of liminal spaces inspired by dreams from members of the public, framed within a surreal circus show. Dreams are the prancing white horses and tumbling acrobats of our nighttime wanderings, the entertainment we ourselves compose, the flaps of a tent drawn back to reveal our innermost ‘Sleep Circus’.
Sea Songs
Community project Autumn 2018
Music by Lucie Treacher featuring the voices of Brora Primary School Children
Images by Catalin Filip and Lucie Treacher
Commissioned by Young Scot's Future Routes
Event at Brora Ice House pop-up cinema
-
Sea Songs is a sonic and visual exploration of superstitions in the North Highlands. The project recreates a surreal local superstition through playful imagery. It features the voices of local school children, who create a symbolic bridge between the present and these symbols of the past. The film/performance was inside a pop-up cinema created by Lucie and Catalin for the local community, using a disused ice house in a harbour in Brora, Sutherland.
