Good Morning Midnight

2012 Jermyn Street Theatre, Latitude Festival

In the space that hangs somewhere between sleep and consciousness, your body and mind begin to free fall, sparking weightless memories of the day’s fleeting encounters. Bouncing off the pillows we bid a good morning to midnight, and it is here between the silk sheets of not-quite-reality that our piece takes place.

Set to an amazing original score that will manipulate your heart rate, Good Morning Midnight is the first in a line of collaborations between the McOnie Company and the sensational recording artist Tasha Taylor Johnson. A danced dreamscape worth coming to bed for.

‘McOnie’s choreography and TTJ’s soothing yet exciting music collate perfectly to create this piece of theatre. Exciting and electric, it inspired me, and I hope the rest of the audience, to stretch further, reach higher and not feel limited by surroundings.’

— Natasha Wynn
‘Good Morning Midnight defies the confines of a small theatre space and takes the audience on an unforgettable journey through the night-time.’

— Natasha Wynn
‘It helps that McOnie’s choreography is stunning. Using the space as though it were the size of the Royal Opera House, McOnie stretches each dancer to the max, working every fibre of their bodies to every corner of the theatre.’
