Last show at the Zipper

Last night at the Zipper theater was the last aerial show of 2008. There were twelve acts in the small space--people on the balcony were face to face (body) with the performers. I was scrambling over people, and balancing on the railing to deal with the rigging.
Here are two pictures of Britt Nhi Sarah (whom I coach) with me in the background.

At the Zipper

Last Sunday there was an aerial performance at the Zipper Theater. It was produced by Britt Nhi Sarah. I have been coaching Britt Nhi for several years. As well as producing she also performed on Sunday. It was a beautiful, succinct and emotionally precise piece. It relied on sustained, fluid movements that flowed and levitated around, in, and above the hoop.

Last Night at the Zipper

Last night at the Zipper theater there was an aerial performance. My student, Britt Nhi Sarah, was performing on the double lyra. It was a beautiful, difficult piece involving swinging, transferring from hoop to hoop and a continual, graceful line. The photos were taken by Jan Meissner
