A single performer has made an altar in the middle of an abandoned warehouse; the audience joins a crowd of mannequins to experience a sonic journey through denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. With original script by Ken Yoshikawa and direction from R.L. Routh, performer and composer Kora Link grieves a dying world and seeks answers about the nature of endings and beginnings; a surreal collage, a ritual. Each stage of grief is its own movement within the overarching song cycle. Follow the last living human being on Earth as they utilize the sounds of post-rock, noise, metal, and shoegaze to fight back the impending silence of the end through powerful live performances of original songs.
