TWO SINISTRAL PALMS













A prologue to accompany the performance of TWO SINISTRAL PALMS at JUNCTION:

Two Sinistral Palms is the concluding part of The Janus Work, an epic performance piece in thirteen parts which has spanned the past seven years. Camden Town Unlimited will be the sixth venue to witness The Janus Work by the unlikely partnership of Pandhal and Wobble. Audience members are encouraged to move in and around the performance coming and going as they please.

King Conny Wobble

The earliest evidence of Conny Wobbles existence dates back to at least the Iron Age. A gold beaker inscribed with his name (etched in runes) was excavated in 1818 from an ancient burial mound near Bodmin Moor. The artifact shed new light on a local folk story, which tells of "a ghostly druid who offered all he came across a drink from his cup, that could never be emptied". After carbon dating, the cup was confirmed as being from the first century AD. Further tests found the beaker to have in it traces of egg and a sweet alcoholic drink, much akin to are modern day brandy. As well as proving the incredible accuracy of local folk memory, it is undeniable evidence of Conny Wobbles existence over 2000 years ago.
