Due to COVID-19, this performance has been postponed. New date to be announced as soon as possible.
Falling Out is the final piece in Phantom Limb’s trilogy about people’s changing relationship to nature over time. A highly anticipated and deeply researched production, Falling Out examines the earthquake, tsunami and subsequent nuclear meltdown that ravaged the region of Fukushima, Japan in 2011, marking the most fatal natural disaster in history. Blending puppetry with the distinct Japanese art of Butoh, Phantom Limb Company collaborates with Dai Matsuoka of Sankai Juku to investigate the shared language of Butoh and puppetry to express loss and life afterwards. Krump dancer Banks Artiste, in the unique language of this rising street style, brings another movement texture that strikes a deep chord in this story.
