MY HUSBAND IS A SPACEMAN

LIVE COLLISION comes back to ABSOLUT Fringe with a bang! Bringing more exciting radical work to Ireland from three diverse international artists. International companies perform by night and collaborate with their Irish counterparts by day, exploring a cross pollination of ideas, art forms and cultural landscapes.

LIVE COLLISION presents....

My Husband is a Spaceman, a multi-media solo show, this is the third part of an absorbing trilogy from an incredible live artist.

A Japanese office lady is content with her single lifestyle until she encounters Robin, an English University fellow, in Tokyo. They fall in love, get married, and move to England. But married life is not what Robin expects and the eccentric Englishman takes to locking himself in a room upstairs every night.

Derived from an old Japanese folk tale of love between a peasant and a crane, this is a love story loosely based on Kazuko’s experience
of a cross-cultural relationship, loneliness and how to survive it. One of the most personal and affecting performers you are ever likely to see.
