Lisa
Harrow and Roger Payne
will
be performing their collaborative performance
"SeaChange:
Reversing the Tide"
Should everything dance to humanity’s tune, or does such a
self-important view lead to the destruction of life on earth?
This
question is addressed by the performance piece SeaChange:
Reversing the Tide.
By combining the knowledge of science with the wisdom of poetry Roger
Payne and Lisa
Harrow argue compellingly that man is not the overseer of life
but an integral part of life’s complex web, and that our
survival requires that we attend not just to our own wellbeing
but also to the wellbeing of the entire web of life.
Written
and performed by Payne and Harrow, and including the poetry of
Shakespeare, Shelley, Robert Frost, Wendell Berry, Gary Snyder,
Mary Oliver, and others, SeaChange:
Reversing the Tide
offers an exposé of the consequences of humanity's current
indifference to natural laws.
