wow Allen, that sounds really cool!  Something my two older girls would enjoy 
also, but I'll be at NF that weekend.  Will it ever be performed again that you 
know of?  
PEACE

  Gnosis presents "The Crossing"

  Multi-media Aerial and Earthbound Dance

  http://www.gnosisarts.org/crossing

  Gnosis, recently named "Best Experimental Dance Troupe" by Creative 
  Loafing, will be presenting their latest work  -- "The Crossing"  --  
  at 7 Stages Theater June 27 - 29, 2003.

  "The Crossing"  --  created by choreographer/performer Elle Udaykee 
  Trapkin and composer/multi-media artist Allen Welty-Green   -- uses 
  aerial and earthbound dance, video and still image projections, 
  text and original music to relay the universal story of the spiritual 
  journey.

  The music for "The Crossing" will be performed live by Z-Axis 
  (http://www.gnosisarts.org/z).

  In addition to Trapkin's performance, "The Crossing" will feature 
  performances by Amy Estlund (from Moving in the Spirit), Jeff 
  Anderson (from Circus Equilibrus) and Jose Rivera (from Ballethnic).

  There will also be video by London-based multi-media artists Theron 
  Schmidt and Rajni Shah, slide images and costumes by Madeleine St. 
  Romain and free verse by Cornelia Powell.

  Choreography for "The Crossing" is by Trapkin, in collaboration with 
  Estlund and Shad Sterling (Circus Arts).

  In addition to "The Crossing," the program will also include, and a 
  selection of repertoire works from Gnosis' touring production, 
  "Reality Check." These selections include Gnosis' first foray into 
  aerial dance, "Suspension," a subterranean video meditation, "Holy 
  Ground," and a dance/video exploration of the media culture, "In the 
  Country of the Blind, the One-Eyed Man is King," performed by Trapkin 
  and local performer Andrew David. It is also rumored there will also 
  be guerilla performance by Priscilla Smith (Women on Fire)...

  Performances will be at 7-Stages Theater in Little Five Points, 1105 
  Euclid Avenue, Atlanta, GA 30307. Showtimes are Friday, June 27 and 
  Saturday, June 28 at 8:00 PM, and Sunday June 29 at 5:00 PM. 
  Admission is $15 general, $10 students.  For reservations, call the 
  7-Stages box office at 404-523-7647 or visit http://www.7stages.org

  An invitation...

  I maintain an email list devoted to announcing occasional avant-garde 
  and cutting performance events, such as "The Crossing". If you're 
  interested in this sort of work, I invite you to subscribe to the 
  list. I won't share your e-mail address with ANYONE for ANY PURPOSE, 
  and you'll rarely get more than one email a month from me (if that 
  many!)

  To subscribe send an email to gnosis-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and put 
  "subscribe" (without the
  quotes) in the Subject line. That's all!

  Some of you are probably already on the "gnosis list". If so, I 
  apologize for sending you multiple copies.

  You may be wondering how I got your email address... most likely you 
  were referred to me by one of the artists involved in The Crossing, 
  or by another artistic associate, or maybe by someone else on the 
  gnosis
  list. If you received this message in error, I apologize. But don't 
  worry, I won't be keeping this list. You shouldn't receive anymore 
  correspondence from me, unless you are somehow referred to me again 
  in the future!
