Performed and Produced by inkBoat
Clouds from a Crumbling Giant
our wild shining days
April 30 – May 3, 2026
Z Space’s Steindler Stage
Clouds from a Crumbling Giant: our wild shining days, breathes in the spaces of time between human incarnations. Broken yet boundless bodies enter the waiting room of the afterlife. As they re-enact their corporeal memories, consciousness folds in upon itself. 496 moons rise and fall. The band plays “Hazy Shade of Winter.”
inkBoat, founded in 1998, continually invites in the collaborative voices of artists who meet in uncertain territories. The company brings together disperate backgrounds in Noh Theater, Coporeal Mime, Butoh Dance, Physical Theater, and unconventional orchestrations involving acoustic instruments, sound design and nostalgic wonderment.
Presented by San Francisco International Arts Festival
