Night Burns Like Cigarettes is a testimony of love for the night, threatened by disappearance. Our love for darkness makes us human and allows us to question the boundaries of the self. Our fear of darkness and of the unknown haunts our socio-political history - an old story! Hence, the night is being arrested in a mural by Banksy that sits in the Barbican tunnel. It is for British-Zimbabwean singer Kwaye to reclaim our right to darkness via an enchanting dance performance. Night Burns Like Cigarettes is a nocturnal ballad in a dreamt London, better appreciated with open eyes.
