CONWAY — Reynolds Performance Hall will welcome “The Aluminum Show” to the University of Central Arkansas at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 24.
“The Aluminum Show” brings music, materials and artists together resulting in a combination of physical theater, dance, humor and acrobatics in a multi-sensory experience. The show is suitable for all ages, and, as it is mostly non-verbal, for all languages.
“It’s a bit like if the ‘Blue Man Group’ and the percussive movement show ‘STOMP’ were mixed and you add giant puppets and acrobatics,” said Julia Dossett Morgan, director of marketing and finance at Reynolds. “It’s a fast-paced show that will leave the audience thrilled with excitement. This company of performers has toured internationally, and we’ve been looking forward to having them in Conway for a very long time.”
The new show was written and directed by Lior Kalfo, creator of the internationally successful shows “Voca People,” “Fantasy” and “Glow,” with choreography by Ido Tadmor, one of Israel’s foremost choreographers, and is under the artistic direction of Ilan Azriel, co-creator of the international Aluminum Show. Tickets are $30-40 for adults, $27-37 for seniors and alumni, and $10 for children and UCA students.
