Minnesota’s master storyteller explores memory, loss, and connection

Accompanied onstage by Rob Witmer, the performance weaves humor, heartbreak, and hope, reflecting on how connections shape our lives. Directed by Steven Dietz, UNRAVELED shows how Kling is constantly looking for the patterns, connections and the surprising intersections that connect us to each other and to the world. With a heartfelt ode to love and apologies to the gods, Kling unravels the tangled threads that have guided him to an unexpected destination.
