My overall impression

WOW. First off, this show is visually stunning. The lighting, the costumes, the masks, the everything—it’s all gorgeous. The choreography is incredible—there was this particularly amazing moment when someone was buried and (I don’t think I’ll be able to describe it) but it looked like he was slowly being pulled beneath the earth by the dancers’ legs. So creepy and beautiful. There’s also an unbelievable aerial silks dance with Stephen Beitler and Ashley Elizabeth Allen that is worth three times the price of admission by itself. And you can just feel how much fun everyone on stage is having. The audience was literally on its feet at the end. And I didn’t even mind that it was standing room only and I was wearing heels, which says something about the quality of the show! :) There’s also a truly incredible dance with Cloie Taylor that leaves everyone in the audience both turned on and in stitches—a rare combination!
