Pilobolus is all about having fun as we saw in the 2007 Academy Awards telecast, the Oprah show, and the 2002 Olympic Games. Theatrical innovation at its best, Pilobolus creates work with the imaginative use of costumes and props, precarious aerial work, and message and meaning all wrapped up in an accessible story. The program features its first collaborative creation, Pilobolus, conceived as a Dartmouth College dance composition project in 1971. This troupe of superhuman artist/athletes has since turned heads and eyes with its novel approach to weight- sharing, eye-catching gymnastics and over-the-top group partnerings. Pilobolus is serious fun! Information & Tickets: 215-898-3900 http://www.dancecelebration.org/DanceCelebration.htmlPosts: 1257 | Registered: Nov 2005
