The Experience:
Nature, a bridge and an evocative story.
Join the folks at Rythmix on Saturday, February 8th at 7pm and experience Flight Lessons, a Folk Opera by Deborah Crooks. It’s a story you will retell again and again.
Inspired by true events on Oakland’s Fruitvale Bridge, Flight Lessons tells the story of Peregrine Falcons and humans coexisting at the edge of wild and urban life.
The narrative follows an urban wildlife biologist as she monitors a breeding pair of falcons nesting on the bridge. When one bird is tragically shot, the lives of the falcons and the human community around them become deeply intertwined.
Exploring themes of home, migration, adaptation, and resilience, Flight Lessons examines the connections between life, loss, and the natural world. It asks: How do we learn to value nature in an urban environment? And how do we recover and move forward after profound loss? Tix/more info: https://www.rhythmix.org/events/flight-lessons/
