Moonlight Motel: A Journey Through Homelessness

After the success of Tofu Cowboy, theater maker Steyn de Leeuwe dives into the world of homelessness. In Moonlight Motel, he presents a virtuosic, musical one-man show filled with humor, rawness, and numerous characters. This poignant exploration questions what it really means to have a home. Steyn spent two years working in a homeless shelter, and he channels that experience into a hallucinating theatrical journey about life on the streets. It’s an Odyssey told by an anti-hero, addressing themes of success and failure, happiness and despair, justice and injustice, fiction and reality. Sleeping on the streets is closer than you think, and everyone is searching for a place to call home. In this musical and humorous piece, Steyn embodies a multitude of characters; a true theatrical tour de force. By the end, he ponders where his own home is and if he will ever find it again. Steyn de Leeuwe brings the streets to the stage. Excludes consumption.
