“Nearly Invisible”
The evening long performance of “Nearly Invisible,” staged in the round, is a unique and surprising mix of musical theatre, with dance, poetry, film, song, moving sculpture, and an original music score by Jesse Manno. The performance is a playful and sometimes serious look at the layers of our lives and how they are inextricably woven with the layers of our earth. The show is performed by children, teens, adults and seniors from a wide range of backgrounds and ability levels in collaboration with nationally acclaimed professional artists.
“Confetti”
"What a wonderful treat it was to watch "Confetti Conspiracy" last night. To continually be delighted by real and moving content, by old and young, black, white and Latino, mentally challenged and bright, by grace and awkward determination, by beauty and plainness - so much and more made me relish our shared humanity. I loved your multitudes and diversity. Thank-you." Roger Jordan, Boulder, CO

“I Am Dancer”
I am chocolate swirl, I am neither here nor there, I will be a dancer, I am, I am. A flurry of images reveals unseen connections in a middle-American city and the surprising ease of communication through dance. Turning the Wheel Productions, an intergenerational dance theater company, joined the team for this video leading creative dance workshops in schools, community centers, and service organizations throughout the city of Columbus, Ohio. The result is a portrait of Columbus in dance.
