Event Details

D’AIR Aerial Dance Ensemble’s newest production, ‘BARRIERS’ will be sure to push you to the edge of your seats with daring aerial acts on trapezes, slings, fabrics and invented apparatus such as the steel fence which acts as the centerpiece to the show, acrobatics and contemporary dance. D’AIR’s last production ‘VIEWS’ was critically acclaimed as ‘most original performance piece in town.’ 


D’AIR Aerial Dance Ensemble, DAIR’s professional aerial dance company, currently comprises of seven members with backgrounds in movement arts as varied as they come. Through collaborative efforts, the strength of each of these performers permeates into their shows, creating truly unique multidisciplinary yet seamless productions. D’AIR produces one full-length production annually in March as part of a larger collective:  ‘ALWAYS’. Each show is intricately entwined with previous and future shows yet can be viewed as a unique entity or ‘Reveal’.  ‘VIEWS through a window’, was the first reveal, performed in March 2009.  Using a large three-dimensional steel window as a centerpiece for the show, imagery for a lens through which we see ourselves, and others, ‘VIEWS through a window’ encapsulated the search to the most inner part of our soul and stretching out to the furthest point on the horizon.  The show received rave reviews from audiences, including arts critic Steve Seiberg who claimed that ‘VIEWS must be the most original performance piece in town.' Currently D’AIR is preparing our second reveal, 'BARRIERS,' premiering March 19-21, 2010.  ‘BARRIERS’ will be a new journey with a new level of energy, new innovations, yet just as authentic, intimate and thought provoking.

The DAIR Project is a 501c3 not-for-profit community arts organization. Through aerial dance, cultural, and movement arts, DAIR’s mission is to weave the fabric of the greater Atlanta community together to serve and empower our youth and teens.  DAIR is centrally located in a historic church nestled in the quant neighborhood of Grant Park close to downtown Atlanta, whose soaring ceilings provide a perfect sanctuary for aerial dance.  Aerial dance is a genre of dance that incorporates vertical space through the use of equipment such as suspended objects (trapezes, fabrics, ropes, hoops, ladders) or large structures (such as buildings or barriers) that add another dimension to dance.

 

DAIR’s programs include classes in aerial dance and a variety of movement arts, student performance opportunities, community cultural events and professional aerial dance productions.  At the heart of DAIR’s programming is its Youth and Teen Program, accessible to any child regardless of ability to pay.  The youth and teen program is a student earned program that requires a high level of commitment and accountability.
