I was pleasantly surprised at how engaging and fantastic Professor Francine Conley’s performance was. Prior to attending it however, I had never witnessed a show with only one actor/actress. Because of this, I had assumed that Conley was going to be having conversations with herself as she tried to have dialogue. To my surprise though, for each section Conley played one person and each person somehow centered on the symbol of a pigeon. From the “Notes on the Show” segment from the pamphlet they passed out, a pigeon symbolizes exile and are reflections of the displaced, scrap scavengers, and home seekers.” Professor Francine Conley (writer, performer, maker), Henrik Borgstrom (director), and Liv Gudmundson (photographer) are all travelers moving
