Go far enough towards the trunk on the tree of life and we are all related. We imagine mummies growing roots and we raise a gathering of soul-keeper portraits to witness our proceedings.<\/p>\n
1. Migration\/Colonization<\/h4>\n
We are exploring the displacement, colonization, and forced migrations, across generations, for humans, plants, and animals. From our roots we can trace both our interconnectedness and the separate paths of our ancestors.<\/p>\n
2. Fog<\/h4>\n
As we find ourselves stuck in a moment of nowhere, moving through the mist, we search for stories and connections that have been lost or hidden. We call on the magic of our Queer Ancestors – the Keepers of the In-Between – to help guide us through the chaos of liminal space. During the Calling of the Names, we take time as a community (audience and performers alike) to call out the names of our beloved dead – both known, and unknown.<\/p>\n
3. Intergeneration\/Regeneration<\/h4>\n
We explore the traumas that get passed down and the traumas that we hold in our bodies, the ways we get stuck in patterns. Through our ancestors and our community there are different ways we find resilience and healing, breaking free and becoming more fully ourselves.<\/p>\n
4. Chosen Family<\/h4>\n
Like a river a family creates and it destroys. It carries things away and brings them back together again. We find our chosen family through shared resiliency and stories when the river’s current becomes too hard for us to bear.<\/p>\n
Closing<\/h4>\n
A seed learns to grow wherever it may land, searching for what to embrace and what to push away.<\/p>\n\t
