Tropical Stories

Performers, costumes, instruments, props / 11:44 minute video / 2015

Similar to a collection of short stories, Tropical Stories brings together four separate tales: a man carrying pieces of a carnival float through his favela, a woman improvisationally dancing around tourists on a helicopter pad, another woman carrying an inflatable raft over her head through the jungle, and a foreign man attending a parade dressed as a snowflake. While each performance took place separately in a different tropical location, they have been interwoven together as one story.
