The Kingfisher’s Wing, the Story of Badi
(80 minutes)
It is
1867 Persia—a rebellious 17 year old youth, Badi, is tortured and killed after
delivering a sacred message to the Persian Monarch, Naxiri’d-Din Shah;
a theatrical gesture of humor, subtlety and tragic power featuring shadow
play, puppetry, music, movement, and a powerful text.
“...a profound dramatic event...a virtuoso piece...a
performance/production that deeply affects in an emotional and intellectual
sense, yet gives us great hope.”
—Mark Sadan, film maker
Walden
(90 minutes or 45 minutes)
It being over 150 years since Henry, aged 27, retreated to the woods “to settle
himself, and work,” the cause of his concerns are still very much with us, and
in many cases, have only waxed more grievous.
The voice you hear on stage is not only his or that of the actor.
It is, perhaps, the everlasting and innocent soul of mankind itself,
longing for truth, freedom, beauty, Life.
