Of Moths and Flames
Three stories. Three irresistible flames call. The moths fly towards them, willing, trembling, and doomed. Come closer.
About Of Moths and Flames
Of Moths and Flames offers three original stories that unfold where longing meets danger: a silent presence that feels like it knows you, a personality that consumes, and a voice that listens too closely. The flames whisper, and the moths are mesmerised by their irresistible pull.
Written and performed by storyteller Inés Álvarez Villa, these three haunting tales burn with a sensuality and passion that flutters too close to the flame.
Join us for a darkly seductive evening!
