​

Inspired by Appalachian ballads—old English, Scottish, and Irish folk songs carried to early North America—The Ballad Tree is a living work shaped through live music, movement, and puppetry. Rooted in folklore. Built for gathering.

​

Focusing on the tragically romantic tradition of “murder ballads,” the work weaves together time-tested ballads alongside original, ballad-inspired composition and movement. Akin to fairy tales, these stories speak to difficult emotional terrain; despite their dark themes, they evoke a sense of beauty, and awe.

​ 

Developed with support from Dixon Place Work-in-Progress Residency and the Delaware County Community Arts Grant. Ready for touring - highly adaptable to any venue, indoor or out.
