Original Creation by Lillian White and Ricardo Delgado

Description:

Can a chicken’s life story help us understand our own? 

A small-town farm girl finds herself pulled between South America and South Carolina. Inspired by the birds that defined her childhood, and that have accompanied human migration for millenia, she reflects on what it means to be a traveler in the 21st century. Dreamt up on her parents’ 50- acre chicken farm and developed in Lima, Peru, this unique performance is rooted in international collective creation.
