Description
How many light bulbs does it take to change an octogenarian? What is it like to sleep on air? How does a psychotherapist stay grounded when his patient becomes an earthworm?San Francisco premiere, April 11 and 12 2008-Wide Blue Yonder Dance Company presents Tender Ground, an evening of three poignant and humorous aerial theatre pieces. Using the awkward, metaphoric beauty of body in flight, co-directors Lisa Christensen and Andrew Purchin explore several ever-manifesting conditions of humanity-homelessness, mental health and aging. Characterizing the vulnerability and perseverance of the human spirit, Tender Ground unearths the ideal beauty within "imperfection."
"Movements above ground allowed emotional expressions in ways untapped until now. The flat wooden stage will never be the same again."
