Aquatic Dances at the Mystic Aquarium/the BLUE project brings together the strengths of the Mystic Aquarium, Elm City Dance Collective and New Haven Symphony Orchestra to create a contemporary dance piece depicting the relationship of life on land and in the sea. Elm City Dancers, accompanied by NHSO musicians, will artistically dive, float and swim as they embody the amazing aquatic life of the Mystic Aquarium. This innovative year-long project will also include a multi-dimensional education program and performances presented in schools across the State of CT. The project will culminate with a two-day family festival at Connecticut’s Mystic Aquarium on May 14 and 15, 2011. The Connecticut Commission on Culture & Tourism, Mystic Aquarium, and United Illuminating have all made this project possible through their generous financial support.
AQUATIC DANCE FESTIVAL MAY 14th and 15th at the MYSTIC AQUARIUM!
Festival: 10:30am-3:30pm.
the BLUE Project / Aquatic Dances Premiere: 1:30pm.
