Inspired from the myth of Medea, Psychopomp investigating the idea of death, exploring the concept of limbo which occurs before one moves on to the afterlife.
Eva is a young socialite recently married to Medea's divorcee, Jason. While enroute to meet Jason for dinner, she is ambushed and murdered by the jealous Medea. Eva awakens in Limbo where she meets Charon, the psychopomp whose one job is to ferry her to the afterlife. But Eva is not yet ready to move on. Before she steps onto the boat, she must come to terms with her past and confront the woman who took her life and everything she must leave behind.

We incorporated music and theatre together to create a piece that was an audience favourite. We had an amazing time working with other up-and-coming theatre companies.
An adaptation of the Giglamesh myth (one of the oldest epic stories). A story about finding, and losing, true love.

Psyche Theatre's first go at complete self-production. Thank goodness we had help from our good friend Elysse Cheadle. On August 17-19 at the Russian Hall in Vancouver's Strathcona neighbourhood, we produced Kaylin's play "Two Birds on a Wire" in a night that included Elysse's theatre-dance piece "Hoof" and music from Elliot Vaughan and Eric Wettstein. Directed by the wonderful Christina Andreola, it was an experience like none other.
