As a part of the Indigenous Voices in the Americas series the School of Theatre presented a Booth production of this world-premiere convergence stories of lineage, legacy, and land developed and facilitated by SOT resident guest artist Ty Defoe in collaboration with guest designer Katherine Freer alongside the guidance of Mashpee Wampanoag Elder Siobhan Brown.

Interweaving Indigenous oral storytelling traditions and contemporary multimedia performance, Patterns of Wind is a process of creation and exploration. Students will deepen their own understanding of their relationship to lineage and migration through embodied techniques and decolonial practice. Drawing from personal narrative and blood memory, the ensemble devised an experience that uplifts the interconnection of all living things.
