To celebrate and showcase this hot spot for creative work tucked away in the hills and woods of Connecticut, artists are gathering for two concerts in September. Most work performed in these two concerts was created or rehearsed at the Dragon’s Egg, and some pieces are drawn from a yearly summer solstice event at the Dragon’s Egg honoring literary narrative ( 2012: Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, and 2013: “Juliet, and her Romeo”).
The Dragon's Egg is the unique rehearsal space for the Mystic Paper Beasts, a mask theatre troupe led by Marya Ursin and Dan Potter. The Egg is a freestanding hexagonal building at the end of a tree-encircled field in the countryside of Ledyard, CT. The studio space measures 2,200 square feet, and boasts a sprung floor, sub-floor heating, a minimal kitchen, a loft for sleeping, and a hexagonal cat’s walk in its high, circus tent-roofed ceiling. It is home to regular classes and workshops in yoga, dance, creative and healing arts. In this vaulting, inspiring space, The Mystic Paper Beasts have supported the development of over forty artists’ work from New York and New England, through workshops and free rehearsal residencies, just in this past year alone. We welcome artist applications.
