NOTE FROM THE CREATORS Our home of New York City has a long history of artists from different genres collaborating, most notably dancer Martha Graham and sculptor Isamu Noguchi. We followed suit, curious to see what combining our physical comedy with the air sculptures of Brooklyn-based artist Daniel Wurtzel would create. Over five years we worked together, developing new sculptures and object manipulations to create the genre-bending Air Play. Is Air Play theater, comedy, sculpture, or circus? Yes! Our show is rooted in our love of circus, clowns, aerialists, acrobats, and jugglers. Real people doing real things – defying gravity. If you tilt your head you’ll see the circus in Air Play — the fabrics become our aerialists, helium balloons become juggling props, and the powerful fans gracefully defeat the same gravity circus performers work so hard to overcome. Air Play is a visual poem, using no words. Just as a poem may have no literal story, Air Play is open to interpretation. We’ve performed across the U.S. and around the globe, from the southernmost opera house in the world in Chile, to London’s Royal Festival Hall, Melbourne’s State Theater, and Shanghai’s Grand Theatre. Around the world, audiences tell us that the wonder and discovery of Air Play are bold reminders of their own childhood and growing up, of friendship, sibling rivalry, loss, and memory. We invite you to breathe deeply, laugh, gasp, and find your own story. ~ Seth and Christina
