KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Be prepared and arrive early. Ideally you should arrive at the Zoellner Arts Center 20- 30 minutes before the show. Allow for travel time and bus unloading or parking and plan to be in your seats at least 15 minutes before the performance begins. Be aware and remain quiet. The theater is a “live” space. You can hear the performers easily, but they can also hear you, and you can hear other audience members, too! Even the smallest sounds like rustling papers and whispering can be heard throughout the theater, so it’s best to stay quiet so that everyone can enjoy the performance without distractions. The international sign for “Quiet Please” is to silently raise your index finger to your lips. Show appreciation by applauding. Applause is the best way to show your enthusiasm and appreciation. Performers return their appreciation for your attention by bowing to the audience at the end of the show. It is always appropriate to applaud at the end of a performance, and it is customary to continue clapping until the curtain comes down or the house lights come up. Participate by responding to the action onstage. Sometimes during a performance, you may respond by laughing, crying or sighing. By all means, feel free to do so! Appreciation can be shown in many different ways, depending on the art form. For instance, an audience attending a string quartet performance will sit very still while the audience at a popular music concert may be inspired to participate by clapping and shouting. Concentrate to help the performers. These artists use concentration to focus their energy while on stage. If the audience is focused while watching the performance, they feel supported and are able to do their best work. They can feel that you are with them! Please note: Backpacks and lunches are not permitted in the theater. There is absolutely no food or drink permitted in the seating areas. Recording devices of any kind, including cameras, cannot be used during the performances. Please remember to silence your cell phone and all other mobile devices. The artists are performing dangerous work which can become more dangerous by outside distractions. Study Guide: Gravity and Other Myths: page 4 2. ABOUT THE SHOW Gravity & Other Myths’ A Simple Space is just that – a small grey square, framed by an audience who are up close and friendly. The space is built, dismantled and reconstructed by an architecture of people who pile, climb and weave their bodies into towering structures. The space and the narrative are in constant collapse and renovation as each section takes a trick and explores how it can be made into a game or competition – and how many boundaries can be stretched along the way. Once the game is exhausted and the bodies dismounted, the group reconvenes at the back of the stage, ready to introduce the next task. Jacob Randell, Lachlan Binns, Martin Schreiber, Jascha Boyce, Joanne Curry, Simon McClure and Lachlan Harper bound about with backwards somersaults, leg ups onto shoulders and three, four and more-person strong acrobalance compositions. Elliot Zoerner provides live percussion and sound for the piece and is very much part of the antics of the performance. Starting with the iconic and recognizable ‘catch’ game, each member shouts the word before they fall backwards in hope that their fellow performers will endeavor to save them, and sometimes they don’t! This prepares the audience for the format of the show, a series of competitions and games that demand copious amounts of trust, daring, tenacity and strength to overcome. By projecting the tasks in the form of competitions, viewers witness the maximum capabilities of human physicality as performers fall or leap, win or lose, give up and surprise. This heightens a sense of ownership for both performers and viewers. Thuds, vibrations, calls and falls, sparkling eyes and genuine smiles draw viewers into games as if all is at stake. In discussion with company members Boyce, Harper and McClure; it is revealed that the choreographic process is task based, and it is left intentionally ambiguous to the audience which outcomes have since been set and which remain an immediate event. Study Guide: Gravity and Other Myths: page 5 A game begins by standing on the stomach of another person laid on the floor, then progresses in height and breadth: walking on hands, jumping across the stage from chest to tummy like a frog to his lily pad. Each extension of a task creates additional highlights that surprise without over playing the idea or boring the viewer. Somersaulting in turn along a diagonal line, a swinging version of musical bumps, and Binns solving a Rubik’s cube while balanced on his head, legs spread-eagled, form a running theme of lighthearted but highly technical games. The live music and percussion by Zoerner allows movements and balances to follow their natural momentum rather than be dictated to by a beat. He also takes his own opportunity to compete, with audience members, by inviting them in a clapping game of question and answer, call and response. He stamps, clicks, claps and slaps his body in a score of accents and double time using his skin to create what sounds like a rhythm tap score. The moments in between games of recapping, and introducing the next task, provide a break to the intensity of the piece. The most powerful feature of this work, that sets it high above others, is the relationship between the performers. Tenderness balanced with great strength, and competition executed with a playful sense of humor exposes the personality and charisma of the performers. It is through eye contact and genuine smiles that the group engages viewers in every breath, step and flying leap. Study Guide: Gravity and Other Myths: page 6 Important terms to know about this show Acrobat - an entertainer who performs gymnastic feats.

  • Circus School Announces Special Needs Pilot Program
    buzzonstage.com https://www.buzzonstage.com/chicago/evanston/actors-gymnasium/articles/circus-school-announces-special-needs-pilot-program Circus School Announces Special Needs Pilot Program The Actors Gymnasium is proud to announce a pilot program serving children and adults with disabilities. Initially, the program will offer two classes tailored for: students with Autism aged 10-14 and students with Down Syndrome aged 16 years and older. Additional classes will be added based on community interest. Circus Arts offers a non-competitive, creative recreational opportunity that allows individuals to shine. Taught by certified instructors, classes will provide instruction in a variety of circus disciplines, including aerial arts, tumbling, and dance in a safe and supportive environment. Students will enjoy individualized attention and be coached according to their ability, helping them to develop confidence in a community of their peers. Parents within AG's community saw the growth in confidence that students experienced in private lessons and one off workshops and knew the potential AG's open environment could bring to students with special needs. When they approached Executive Director Virginia Nugent with the idea, she saw it as a perfect opportunity to help another community "Learn to Fly" physically, emotionally, and creatively. The ability to launch a new pilot program is largely due to support from the Noyes Tenants Association and The City of Evanston to get an additional teaching space in the Noyes Cultural Arts Center. This new space opened up a number of new possibilities for the non-profit. Open Houses will be held on September 11 at 6:00 pm for students with Down Syndrome and September 14 at 7:30 pm for students with Autism to introduce parents and students to the space.

  • Mapping Circus and Street Art in Southeast Europe INTRODUCTION
    MAPPING CIRCUS AND STREET ART IN SOUTHEAST EUROPE INTRODUCTION For the circus in the Balkans, it can be said to be a spontaneous growth plant that builds its way through a series of obstacles, side-tracks, and aggravating circumstances. Over the past years of persistent work and action, the plant called the circus has succeeded in roots taking and growing in a tree that is expanding its branches. Through the years, with the development of Cirkobalkana festival, contemporary circus festival that is focused on representing regional circus scene from Balkans, artists, groups and circus organizations started to collaborate more and more. It was obvious that if we are working together, it helps us to develop new ideas and shows, to bring foreign educators in the region, international high-quality shows and also to position contemporary circus and street art in national cultural policies. In 2018 we started the first regional platform, CPuP - Circus on the move and we got the grant from Foundation Kultura nova which gave us the wind in our sails. Through various activities (co-production of performances, residency programs, education and quest performances), program cooperation is developed as well as a greater flow of cultural work in the region. The educational program strengthens the capacity of member organizations; enable professional training of artists and artist’s mobility in the field of regional contemporary art. One of the activities was mapping circus organization in the region to collect more information about organizations, spaces and performers (individuals/companies) that are working in the circus or street performing art in the Balkan Region.
