Odette Mercy's Heartbreak Dance

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds...” Anais Nin

…but sometimes it dies because people are just assholes. Odette Mercy

Odette Mercy & Her Soul Atomics play host to The Heartbreak Dance. Their songs are often about relationships, love lost and love gained. Odette herself has been through a number of relationships as the heartbreaker and as the heartbroken. There is something personable about Odette and she shares her stories openly. Often people, strangers even, confide in her asking for advice. Who best to host a dance about heartbreak?

Stories, illustrations/ animations will also come from local performers, comedians, storytellers, poets, artists and musicians.
