In Wildness takes on the most poignant challenge of our time as we connect with our miraculous and irreplaceable world. 3A leads you on a journey through the Arctic and its vanishing polar ice, warming temperatures, rising sea levels, and threatened wildlife habitats through works of George Crumb, John Luther Adams, and Mary Kouyoumdjian. A powerful lighting design, masked performers, and ethereal sounds of wildlife promise to transport our audience into both the present and aftermath of this global climate crisis.
