About the event

Each piece in this program contains a journey, including: a hiker climbing the Colorado Rockies; a shipwrecked Odysseus being nursed to health; sliding to the moon and dancing on its surface; the crew of a wooden ship surviving getting trapped in an ice pack as they attempt to reach the South Pole; a boy on a bicycle magically defying gravity as he is saving his otherworldly friend.


These pieces are not only about departure and adventure, but they are also about returning home. Because Odysseus longs for Ithaca, he ultimately leaves the island on which he was shipwrecked. As we reach the moon, we look back at Earth. Ernest Shackleton and his crew endure the trials of the Antarctic in order to make it back home alive. As E.T. leaves for his home on a spaceship, young Elliott realizes that he must remain at his home on Earth.


Wonder, adventure, and curiosity draw you out, but love and connection pull you back. An exploration is only meaningful when a harbor exists for your return.
