For "The Cortège" approaches a difficult subject matter with an imaginative question: What if we explore grief not with isolation or solemness, but with wonder? It's a prompt that's ripe for an era of divisive politics, financial stress and often isolating technology. Beginning at twilight and extending into the evening, "The Cortège" starts with an overture, a six-piece band performing in the center of the field. We're seated either on the grass on portable pads with backs or in folding chairs on an elevated platform.
