Lullaby Moon 2010

September 2010
Seattle, WA

By public behest, Lullaby Moon returned to Seattle in the fall of 2010 for a single night of celestial celebration. The evening featured an ensemble of 88 performers, as well as a marching band of sleepyheads, two tug boats, a 42' schooner, a 68' sternwheeler, and 108 “star boats,” which together created a new constellation of 108 stars over Seattle’s Lake Union.

The evening culminated with the arrival of the Swan Queen’s flotilla: a three-story-tall Swan, followed by five eight-foot-tall baby swans.

Lullaby Moon 2010 was a successful experiment in which Lucia Neare’s Theatrical Wonders activated the heart of the city with mammoth-scale mythic imagery; operated large set-pieces of unusual size and shape on the lake at night while maintaining precision theatrical timing; and collaborated and coordinated with numerous civic agencies, boating organizations, harbor police, nautical fabricators, and a marine crane company.

Approximately 5,000 people attended this performance. Many thousands more experienced the work from boats, dwellings, and highways around Lake Union.

Lullaby Moon 2010 was supported by 4Culture, the Site-Specific Performance Network, the City of Seattle Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs, Seattle Parks and Recreation, and the generosity of private donors.

Best thing that ever happened to Seattle!
