no place like home: inflight stories designed to move brings twelve Bay Area artists together in an evening of dance, spoken word, and music inspired by experiences of migration and diaspora. Eleven pieces – including several premieres - celebrate the power of language, the gifts refugees bring, and the mobility of culture. Khmer dance phrases, Burmese kin terms, polylingual poetry, and a locally crafted boat freighted with story transport us through time and space from Manila to Manhattan. Our journey begins at 5pm, with a "flight time" of ninety minutes.
