Wise Fool New Mexico presents
ReUnite: Welcome to the Mycroverse
The show invites viewers to enter into an alternate reality where mycelium flourish in symbiotic relationality with the natural world and elements. This utopian existence was soon threatened with the arrival of the alluring, yet destructive atomic mushroom race and its penchant for greed, violence and extraction to fuel its insatiable appetite. The performance provided a stirring metaphor for Western colonialism and its ongoing detrimental impact the world over, particularly on Indigenous peoples and communities, with special emphasis on nuclear colonialism in New Mexico. The production features stilt walking, acrobatics, juggling, slackline and aerial acrobatic feats while engaging audiences in discussions relevant to the local community.
