White Raven, Black Dove is an original work of science fiction using live performance, computer generated images and animation to explore two issues consuming America today – race and climate change. Through Raven and Dove, two birds with mythological significance in Norse, Asian, Judeo-Christian, Indigenous and other cultures, we are immersed in a dystopian world after the Sixth Extinction, a climate devastation accelerated by human action, and find ways to come together to build a new world. In this era of “two” Americas, Raven reaches both Americas through engaging, contemporary music theater.
