The Story of Fire is an enchanting fire-theatre show that will have you and your family mesmerised. Selah weaves dance, flames, storytelling and music into an unforgettable hour long performance that’s accessible for all ages to enjoy.
Theatre meets Circus, originally trained as a classical Ballet dancer, Selah progressed to the circus arts and has been dancing with fire for almost 15 years across the globe. She returns with her solo show The Story of Fire to warm you and your family’s heart.
Entertainment meets Art, premiering at the National Arts Festival in 2022 (multiple sold out shows) and touring since, The Story of Fire begins with small hand-held flames, builds up with a variety of different fire-dancing props and ends in the grand finale of the Fire Phoenix – dancing with 15 flames on her mythical body.
Grace meets Elemental, This interactive performance starts with a unique offering – the co-creation of original Fire by bow and drill – the way our ancestors once did. By rubbing hard wood on soft, a small ember is created. Blown into life on a bed of kindling, the flame bursts into being and the fire-dance begins.
Language meets Heart, The dance, music and poetry combine to form a magical and life-affirming expression of our synergy with elemental fire.
