In "The Weather Report", the audience experiences the world through the perspective of the pilot and the patient. These are two very different perspectives that require navigating the world in their own individual ways, yet they are alike. The Weather Report is a thematic exploration of weather as a phenomenon, informed by Jon R. Skulberg’s personal experience with bipolar disorder. As an allegory of our human striving for stability and predictability, the performance examines our attempt to deal with disturbance and turbulence.
