Cosmic Trigger

Conceived backstage during Ken Campbell's legendary production of Illuminatus, Ken's daughter, Daisy Campbell and a team of dedicated Discordians re-invoke those mythic performances, this time based on Robert Anton Wilson’s non­fiction autobiographical work, Cosmic Trigger.

This epic-scale production recounts the period of Bob’s life when he journeyed through what he called Chapel Perilous, a period where he also befriended the likes of Timothy Leary, Alan Watts and William Burroughs.

Music, projections and a voice-over by Alan Moore evoke the real­-life hallucinogenic trip through conspiracy, paranoia and enlightenment that transformed Bob from a simple Playboy editor into the influential counter-cultural figure he is today.
