The Depths of Hell with the Royal Frog Ballet
This coming Sunday, the 8th of March, 2009 The Main Street Museum is proud to present
The Royal Frog Ballet and their Winter/Spring show:
The Year of Wanting; A Very Small Shadow Show About The Depths Of Hell
On the Museum Stage at 6:00 pm Admission $5.00, free for Museum Members!
THE YEAR OF WANTING is a hand-cranked, candle illuminated shadow show, based primarily on the Greek myth of Persephone, and including elements from other winter myths and folktales. Poetic, dark, and moving, the show riffs on all things cold and snowy, using live original music, elements from butoh, fan dancing, and traditional storytelling. Highly portable and very small, THE YEAR OF WANTING is unlike anything you've ever seen before....or is it?
THE ROYAL FROG BALLET is an amoeba of collaborators, a producing body, a shouting household of households, and an aspiring dance team in search of parade. They create performance and installation art for community gatherings.
