In a journey or self discovery, we hope to take you on a voyage through the world created by today’s society and the struggles people face. This is a story portraying the raw emotions we feel every day. Lily is a struggling teen who has run away from her life. she follows the flights of birds, the sounds of shadows and through her travels learns to find joy in the world again. Her journey is an exploration of how bullying and social pressure affects us as humans growing up in a society where failure Is punished. This family show combined physical performance, dance, theatre and live music in an intensely woven piece of contemporary circus.
"Embers and Thorns is a truly amazing show .
This was the best circus theater experience I've ever had .
I was inspired and deeply moved by this very special performance and story .
It expresses some of the human journey that we will all experience ~ in varying degrees ~ in our lives .
This is a tale full of adversity , exploration , realization and wonderful hope & achievement .
This combines with the stunning gymnastics , acrobatics and aerial displays on trapeze , silk ropes , and with hoops ....(my words really can't describe how extra-ordinarily skilled and mesmerizing these are !) , and with a rich & personal musical dialogue that guides our understanding and experience .
I am full of admiration and amazement , and it is all the more moving for this really being a Youth Circus ....these people are awesome . You can see the amount of practice they have put in , and feel the bonding & learning these people are doing with each other .
If you get the chance : GO GO GO !
