The second iteration of “Constellations” promises a magically memorable evening in nature.  Enjoy intriguing, intimate fireside performances by leading local cultural talents — each exploring the theme of “into the woods”.

Conceptualised by Brett Bailey, the internationally acclaimed theatre director and playwright, Constellations takes several small groups of guests on a nocturnal adventure through the enchanting, wild parts of Spier Wine Farm. The groups rotate among a sequence of three campfires, gathering for about 35 minutes at each. Every campfire is presided over by its own unique Fire Guardian – a local artist, poet, musician, performer or storyteller – who will host an experience that is enthralling, moving and delightful. Guests have no idea which Guardians they will encounter on their journey: every Campfire reveals a new surprise.

You will return to the city with the smell of smoke in your clothes, your soul enriched and your imagination expanded,” promises Bailey.
