This oceanic showcase features eight Indigenous musicians from Taiwan, Madagascar, Mauritius, Marshall Islands, and Papua New Guinea. Through music, spoken word, and cinema, the audience experiences a musical journey across the breadth and into the soul of island nations of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, meeting an ancient seafaring ancestry and confronting the impacts of climate change as the performers share their islands’ voices.

Recommended for ages 7 and up.

This performance will last approximately 90 minutes including a 20-minute intermission.

This change is occurring in response to increasingly strict contractual requirements of visiting artists, evolving performing arts industry standards, and audience expectations.
