Bonsoir Monsieur Nightfall

Helene's brilliant one hour musical production at the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

An original musical production by Helene (Helen Clark) for the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe at the Assembly Roxy.

Helene, singer/songwriter and guitarist, among many other credits performed at the Royal Albert Hall, at the Cigale in Paris, and in 2016 with Australian-based circus group Casus. She has also composed an original film score for the British Film Institute.

Her 2015 Edinburgh production featured a collection of songs drawing on her experiences during a period when she lived her life 'on the edge' – daybreak on the streets of London; busking in Montmartre; finding love and the kindness of strangers on her travels in Europe.
