Birds Of Paradise: A Story of Songs for the Spaces Between

  • Theatre
  • Music

From Milly Moon, comes a new collection of delightful tales musing on the precariousness of life, the discomfort of growth and the celebration of friendship.

A writer, performer and vocalist known for remarkable range and diversity, Moon is joined by UK/NZ poet Benny Coles, and multi-disciplinary NZ artist Lucy-Belle Willcox, in this celebration of unadorned music and story.

Birds of Paradise is a unique musical conversation exploring the space between us and how we might fill the gaps with song.

Presented as part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival.
