A night sky is not an absence of light; it is the presence of the universe. In The Wild Dark, master storyteller Craig Childs and viruoso musician Greg Istock embark on a quest to one of the darkest spots in North America, guiding us to rediscover the heavens and to ask: “What does it do to us to not see the night sky?” In this performance, the pair invites us to look up and to look inward, eyes wide and sparkling with stars.

Childs is a hopeless tracker of wonder who has written more than a dozen books involving the natural world. His live storytelling performances combine audiovisual elements with adventure, taking audiences on a journey through space, time, and place. His narrative nonfiction and journalism have appeared in High Country News, The Atlantic, Outside, The New York Times, NPR, and Radiolab. He’s won the Banff Book Award, the Orion Book Award, the Colorado Book Award, the Galen Rowell Art of Adventure Award, and three times he’s won the Sigurd F. Olson Nature Writing Award. Home is off-grid in the high desert of western Colorado near the Utah border.

Greg Istock, after decades of working with bands in almost every genre, he is on his own these days and enjoys playing his guitar and bass drum with the likes of Craig Childs. When he is recording, he adds keyboard, piano, and organ, all of which he plays himself. Greg has called Virgin, Utah, his home for almost 20 years: the desert of Southern Utah, located where the Colorado Plateau begins, where the sun was born…

This event is presented by Zion Canyon Mesa's Community Conversations series, with generous support from the Zion National Park Forever Project and in partnership with Torrey House Press.
