AERIAL Theater Shows
She Grows Wings (2024)

"She Grows Wings" is a story about a young daydreamer who escapes the reality of her parents' constant fighting through her imagination.
Through her dreams we find her floating in space, playing with forest creatures, and venturing a little too far when she meets the mermaids who whisk her deeper into a fairytale land. How long is our young daydreamer able to avoid reality? Will she be able to reunite with her family or will she get lost in her imagination?
"She Grows Wings" is a powerful story about finding courage in yourself to face your fears and the power of love that leads us back home.

This was performed at the Yellow Springs, OH high school gym. Aerial choreography taught by GW member Maya Trujillo and fight choreography by GW member Kayla Graham.
