ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE
Clouds from a Crumbling Giant is an examination of the life cycle and its mapping through the Chinese model of the 5 Elements, the nature and quality of decline through aging, and the inclusion of elder bodies within the performance landscape. Currently still within the phase of development, the piece will have several works in progress showings. Because aging is a central theme to the work, and because we are asking how we might all age with more grace, the work includes elder performers.
