Experience
Ballet in Silk


In a stunning display of grace and strength, the artists become one with the ribbon of red fabric that cradles them. This breathtaking aerial dance requires immense agility and flexibility, and allows the performers a wide latitude of acrobatic and artistic expression.

Can one find love amidst the urbanistic society we're presented with today? Perhaps if we take flight and let our hearts and minds sour, our souls will connect with that special someone. Here, an amazing act of strength and stamina, helps us answer that question. While one man dressed in white takes two silk ribbons and teaches us taht man can indeed fly, four women performers twist around in mid-air, performing aerial acts of graceful manipulation and dance.
