A Place To Lay My Head

A performance inspired by a Tom Waits song, Anywhere I lay my head.   The last two lines of the song are:

…Because I learned to be alone
and anywhere
I lay my head boys,
I will call my home.


We set up home and then are torn from it. A lifetime passes while getting settled. Anywhere we go, we are accompanied by the home that is embedded deep within. This work is about transnational movement, migration, and temporary dislocations.
