Eye of Life is a brand new theatre company emerging from the fourth-year Devised Theatre class at York! They are very excited to be present their debut work: Organic Matter!
Organic Matter
Content Warning: This show contains themes and depictions of addiction/abuse of substance, physical abuse, yelling/screaming, strong language, and pulsing lights.
Eye of Life Productions introduces “organic matter,” a performance meant to open the door to new journeys, perspectives, and education with the use of guided psilocybin. With the inspiration of Terrence McKenna’s novel “Food of The Gods” and the fascination of natural medicines, this play uncovers a raw and immersive production to take audiences into their own trip across realities boundaries.
