[atlantaprog] Lelavision

I must take a moment to HIGHLY RECOMMEND the ALL OF YOU go see 
Lelavision this weekend through next weekend at  7 Stages Theater in 
Little Five Points (next door to Variety). This is the third year these 
folks from Seattle have brought their amazing work here, and each year 
it has been incredible. Ela Lamblin is a sculptor who makes amzing and 
indescribable musical instruments, which are played by himself and his 
partner choreographer Leah Mann.  Ela's instruments frequently featured 
tuned strings that are masterfully manipulated with rosin gloves to 
produce ethereally beautiful timbres. Other instruments feature 
percussive and plucked timbres, as well as timbres that defy 
explanation. He has performed with tuned stones, flutes made from 
vegetables(!), bicycle wheels with tuned spokes. Amazingly enough, it 
doesn't all sound chaotic, but rather lyrical. And the performance art 
aspects of their show is on par with Cirque du Soliel, Blue Man Group, 
etc.

I don't throw around this sort of praise haphazardly. These guys are 
amazing, world class performers. This is a chance to catch them while 
they're still doing small regional theaters. DON'T MISS THEM! And take 
your kids too...
