THE LIVING LAKES

The Living Lakes is a multidisciplinary performance piece combining music, dance, theatre, and projection to explore and deconstruct the histories of Black, Latinx, and Native migrants in the Great Lakes region. The project is funded by The Global Midwest, an initiative from Humanities Without Walls. In its Ann Arbor residency, the iteration is divided into six distinct movements, all of which examine and explore the migratory experiences of these people. The play is currently under development in Chicago. I directed the movement Walking Boots.
