‘Where Do We Go From Here?’- Harbor Park Lucerne (May 20) & Clearlake Oaks Nylander Park (May 21)
May 21 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
Event Navigation
‘Where Do We Go From Here?’ will be traveling 205 miles through Mendocino, Lake, Colusa and Glenn Counties on an EV art trike fashioned in the form of a Bark Beetle, stopping along the way to perform an hour long show to rural communities throughout the region from Fort Bragg to Willows. This satirical sideshow was developed through an intensive community research process; Ross Travis and documentary filmmaker Steve Ritchie interviewed a broad spectrum of individuals from the Mayor of Willows, an agricultural community and the county seat of Glenn County, to a group of indigenous women at Xa Kako Dile, a sustainable women-led farm on the Mendocino coast. The show combines their perspectives with Ross’ research into the non bipedal life of the region and the Extreme Heat Index to create a rigorous one man theatrical event where Ross plays fifteen characters and uses a powerful mix of irreverent comedy, tragedy, ritual, acrobatics, kinetic sculptural art and interactive ecstatic play to inform, provoke, provide tools for agency and inspire community action on the issue of climate change and its effects on the region.
