FEBRUARY 9th, 10th, & 11th

The Rhydin Center for Circus Arts welcomes one and all to the newly finished fine arts Vivant Theater, located at the North end of the campus with its own designated entrance where the box office can also be found.
Synopsis:
Each of the night's acts is a loosely woven tapestry of surrealism and theatrical romance aiming to fill the audience with a sense of nostalgia and wonder. You will see a madcap mixture of costumes, artistry, choreography, and music inspired by the concept of Love in its many and varying forms. The show is brought to life by a select cast of Rhydin's circus arts professional aerialists, acrobats, and entertainers. Act I: A trapeze duet that bleeds melancholic reminiscence of a love that once was and a longing for what could be; an intense tale of love and anger as two caged men attract and repel each other until overcome by their magnetic energy; sensational dancers turn up the heat performing a sultry and spirited dance that will entice the imagination; a tough yet supple feminine duo rise to new heights in daring feats of athleticism and strength on the lyra hoop. Intermission
Act II: A beautiful solo on the cyr wheel chronicling the journey toward self love; a vibrant trio of kindred spirits share a provocative story through powerful, intimate hand-balancing acrobatics; the first taste of love for two innocents whose plunge into pure waters reveals a friendship that will last the ages; and ending with a medley of dizzying flips and twirls on the silks with a seductive twist on reality.
Levity in the form of silly, gut-busting skits separate each of the night's eight scenes and during the intermission—be prepared for the infectious foolishness and untameable smiles brought to you by an ebullient clown duo.

The foyer, beyond which lies the theater itself, is decorated festively for the occasion. After the show, guests will return to the reception area for food and drinks. A photo booth is set up with several circus-themed props available for use, tables and chairs for relaxed conversation, and plenty of room for mingling with anyone and everyone, including the costumed cast who will also be present.

As an aside, I'd like to stress that while certain acts may be sensual, none are sexual in any capacity. Everyone is clothed. It is a show for the young and old alike. Don't make it creepy, 'kay"))
