The Luther College Center Stage presents “Gravity & Other Myths: A Simple Space” Friday, April 15, at 7:30 p.m. in the Main Hall of the Center for Faith and Life.
Gravity & Other Myths is a troupe of acrobats from Adelaide, Australia, who push the boundaries of the contemporary circus genre, creating shows with a focus on human connection and acrobatic virtuosity. A Simple Space is an intimate 60-minute show in which a portion of the audience is seated on stage, surrounding the performers.
“This will be like nothing else the Center Stage Series has presented,” says Kristen Underwood, director of campus programming. “We’ve reconfigured some of the seating in the Center for Faith and Life, so some of the audience is in very close proximity to the acrobats. The athleticism and artistry of the performers is underscored by live percussion and the overall effect is spellbinding.”
A Simple Space is Gravity & Other Myth’s first work, and has been presented more than 1,000 times in 34 different nations.
Additionally, the Luther Book Shop offers “Sip and Shop” before each performance. Present your ticket for a complimentary glass of wine and browse the selection before the show.
