Synopsis

Wind in tall trees. White sky. Rain soon. Hooves on earth. Twigs. Snap. Wait. Listen.

A new experiment in performance from Katie Mitchell, Nina Segal and Melanie Wilson.

Using only sound and no words, a quartet of performers and foley artists evoke the lives of two animals – a cow and a deer. Cow | Deer is an invitation to enter the more-than-human world.
