Vincent Cacialano

To whom it may concern
This performance work from choreographer Vincent Cacialano is interactive, physical, and at times absurd. The work collages humorous and poignant scenes, creating a social comment through irony. Set in a fictional frame, the characters traverse far ranging worlds from magic acts to town meetings, to talk-shows and therapeutic culture.
Performers- Vincent Cacialano, Sarah Slifer Swift and Seamus Swift
Tickets available at the door, $10-15 suggested donation
This is a MAGMA Live Art Series production
