The Coming Silence
Choreographed by Melanie Kloetzel
“The Coming Silence is an outdoor walking tour that queries the divisions humans create between themselves and the rest of the biotic world. With performers precisely embodying the postures of both human and non-human animals, the work ponders humanity’s links to other species via an eerie reenactment of the natural history museum display case.” - Melanie Kloetzel (Choreographer)
A Self-Guided Outdoor Walking Tour on Prince's Island Park, Calgary, AB, Canada on May 1st & 2nd, 2021. ReLoCate and TRAction present Part One of their Experiment #5.
