    "A sonic redemption." says Eric Dyer (Radiohole) of Kristen Kosmas' This From Cloudland.

    "[Kosmas is] a rare sort of poet who can bring you along on rhapsodic flights of storytelling, like an expert rafter running the rapids of a wild and unruly word river" says Misha Berson/the Seattle Times.

    presented for Fusebox Festival 2010 with Physical Plant Theater

    “This is not what you think it is, it's— Imagine a radio. Now imagine ten radios.”

    Thirty-five hundred feet directly below the world's only known micro-nation, two young lovers are holding themselves hostage while someone falls off a high wire and someone else has their head stuck in the mouth of a bear. Kristen Kosmas's latest text-for-speaking, This From Cloudland is a tender onslaught of stories that touch, about placement, displacement, and replacement. Featuring NY writer/performer Kristen Kosmas with Elizabeth Kenny and Christopher Petit as the Spooler of Thread, the Innocent Bystander, the Assembler of Envelopes, and Everybody Else in this benevolent labyrinth where everyone's looking for the words for everything. Approx 70 minutes long.
