Capacitor: 'Digging in the Dark' (Thu/27-Sun/30)
To Boldly Go

Capacitor are not afraid. They are not afraid of falling out of human pyramids or off of a circus apparatus. They are not afraid of strapping themselves to any sort of new invention from LED helmets to fabric oceans. Best of all, they are not afraid of appearing silly as they search for a way to take dance as far into science fiction as it can possibly go -- or even farther. In other words, they are fully committed to their geophysical, atomic, deep-space dance odyssey, which makes for some extremely satisfying watching; there is no one remotely like them. Their current work, "Digging in the Dark," heads to the earth's core to touch the human soul. It's probably beautiful, strange and possibly even silly. It's definitely unlike any other dance experience.
