Upcoming Performances of Round Time:

The Baltimore Theatre Project: June 25, 26, 27, 28

Dance Place, DC: September 26 & 27

Round Time is a striking and soulful aerial performance born of the urgent present from aerialist, Mara Neimanis (Air Heart, Naomi’s Flight, For That Which Returns, Swing, Baba Yaga). With performance partner Morgan Mincer, Neimanis creates a duet for two generations of airborne women, bearing aloft audio testimonies from community voices of women of many ages. Together, Neimanis and Mincer explore old cycles and new dynamics, as generations of women, 30 years apart, lift one another-fly one another!-in troubled times. Pure visual poetry to make your heart sing. Created as a commission for The Cherry Arts in NY, with a grant from The National Endowment for The Arts and The NY State Counsel of The Arts. Featuring direction by Claire Marie Mannle (SITI Company) and aerial sculpture by Tim Scofield.
