Hollywood, CA

Local Aerial company, Aeriform Arts has taken the dark and tragic love story of the classic ballet, Giselle, and turned it into a fringe-friendly hour of theatre, dance, cirque, and aerial performances.

Giselle follows the story of a sweet peasant girl with a weak heart and a passion for dancing, who dies of a broken heart after discovering her lover, Albrecht, is not who he appears to be and is betrothed to another.
