This meditative, largely wordless spectacle weaves together dance, theater and the eloquent art of sheepherding. Known for award-winning, one-of-kind works in unconventional settings, Carlson here is freely inspired by David Wroblewski’s best-selling 2008 novel The Story of Edgar Sawtelle, Shakespeare’s Hamlet and Kipling’s The Jungle Book. Humans, sheep (from Strafford resident Stephen Wetmore) and several finely trained sheepdogs collaborate on choreography composed of everyday movement and the herd’s swoops and flourishes against the green backdrop.

No food or dogs (with the exception of service animals) allowed near the performances
