Interdisciplinary artist Gregory Corbino's puppets, sound, and movement transform Battery Park City into a seascape of androgenous oysters, stunning sturgeon and captivating cetaceans.

The performance is composed of two movements. First, on the grass lawn of Teardrop Park, participants learn the puppetry art of fish murmuration. The second movement begins as the murmuration parades to Rockefeller Park. There, giant puppets inspired by biodiversity of New York Harbor join the murmuration, creating a cacophonous confluence of city and sea, a puppet poem that seeks a new relationship to this blue planet.

Those who wish to participate in Murmurations are invited to gather at 2pm. Please note that participants move together in a close group. All are welcome to enjoy the performance at 3pm.
