             Apocalypse Parade

Half carnival pageant, half funeral march, Apocalypse Parade invites you to draw from a hat to decide the fate of human life on earth. Music, glitter, and spectacle open the doors to parallel universe futures of our climate: one jubilant, the other catastrophic. Which will you choose?

                Invisible City

Picture
                 Vivarium

Vivarium is a site specific performance installation piece, which asks: is Nature our intrinsic habitat or are we drawn to its exoticism because we are contemporary urbanites? What does it mean to co-exist with our local environment on colonized land?

Picture

Elk Walk is a large-scale public puppet intervention featuring five puppets made of found and salvaged materials, inspired by the fossilized skeletons of the extinct Irish Elk—the largest species of deer to ever live.
