Mankind
has always dreamed of flight – of rising from the earth to
soar among the angels. As you watch Reaching Seraphim, for just
a few moments the dream becomes a reality.
Though Tanya Scully ascends and performs from a rope,
her grace and strength transcends the medium, creating an impression
of swooping freedom, aerial ballet and the magic of flight.
Performed to the accompaniment of a pulsing
soundtrack, this beautiful and haunting aerial dance adds out-of-this-world
wonder to any form of entertainment.
Letting
Go
One
woman climbs a vertical rope, drawn towards a source. She combines
grace and strength, as if she and the rope were one, but through
her journey she realises she must find a way to let go.
Set to a powerful soundtrack,
this is a beautiful and haunting aerial piece, that will stay with
you long after the act has finished.
Coming
up for Air
This
act takes you on a mesmerising journey in the air, starting entwined
at the top of the rope, suspended and eventually touching the ground.
Drawing
from contemporary dance, adding dramatic drops, sensual flowing
movements, and effortless control. Tanya creates a world where it
seems nothing else exists, a place to get lost in.
