Ajijaak on Turtle Island
press release: Benefit for the International Crane Foundation and Al. Ringling Theater, “Ajijaak on Turtle Island” is a contemporary artistic spectacle that invites theatergoers to follow Ajijaak, a young whooping crane separated from her parents, tracing her first migratory journey alone through the richness of indigenous culture and themes of survival and perseverance in a luscious demonstration of the tender interconnectivity of all living things. Co-director Heather Henson, daughter of Jim Henson, blends puppetry, dance and kiting with evocative sound and light effects to create immersive, interactive presentations that engage all of the senses and awaken the soul.
