A myth turned musical
The Tears of Nerakhis tells the story of Calanthe, a human girl who falls in love with Alea, the daughter of Nerakhis, god of the night. Set in a mythical world shaped by two opposing gods (Nerakhis, god of nature and night, and his brother Reikwald, god of the sun and humanit)the story follows their escape and journey through a growing conflict between the natural world and the world of men.
Blending romance, epic narrative, and tragedy, the novel presents a contemporary myth about love, loyalty, and the cost of humanity defying nature.
The book was first published in Spanish as Las Lágrimas de Nerakhis. Over the past year, the story has also been adapted into a sung-through musical, developed by a team of students and collaborators in St Andrews. The production premiered at the Byre Theatre and marked the first stage interpretation of the work.
We are currently in the process of recording a Cast Recording, and are also preparing for several upcoming live performances, the closest of which is our April 18 Musical in Concert.
