Montréal ‘76 and Guadalajara ‘29

Where are you pigeon queen, pigeon queen, in what sky did you leave footprints?

Two figures have been searching around the world for the queen pigeon. No one has ever seen her up close, some would even say she doesn't exist.

The Pigeon Ambassadors of Hope and Magic is a project of serial storytelling in which Montreal ‘76 and Guadalajara ‘29 are the first two chapters.
Performed together, they’re a weird noir parade of lovers, hunters, nests, quests, and trusting your oats and evidence. We use our tools of physical theater, music and dance, to make a better connection with our feathered cohabitants and open space for less anthropocentric ways of seeing our home.

She took off to a big blue sky and we adventured to go and follow her. We didn't pretend to understand. What a world inside a world inside a world.
