Restless Natives


Restless Natives was a performance based on elements of both Navashwaasam and One Hundred Years of Silent Seeds, but adding live music as well, with Denali DeGraf on charango, Native American flute, and percussion.  Restless Natives was performed across the United States and Canada in 2007, traveling coast to coast performing entirely on the gift economy.  Performances were done in theaters, college campuses, community centers, community gardens, and cafes; during political events and antiwar conferences, for international aid groups, farm crews and high school students, and in many other situations.  Tickets were never sold, audience members contributed as they saw fit after the show.  The one hour show, which dug deep into tender and complex socio-political issues, was always followed by a discussion with audience members, which ultimately became more important than the performance itself.
