Aerial theatre brings alive tales of 'bad girls' in Fallen

Fridays and Saturdays, April 10, 11, 17 and 18 at 8 p.m.
Sundays, April 12 and 19 at 3 p.m.
Harper Studio Theatre, Fine Arts Building

The University of Alaska Anchorage Department of Theatre and Dance presents an original work entitled Fallen, a fresh look at the Biblical episodes of Eve, Jezebel, Delilah, Lot's Wife, and Vashti. Women branded as harlots, liars, murderesses and rebels. Bad girls. This play tells their stories of love, loss, curiosity and defiance in the air and on the ground through a stunning combination of words,
movement and aerial theatre.

Led by guest directors Allison Williams and Zay Weaver of the popular Aerial Angels circus and variety troupe, UAA student participants have created a work infused with the vision, voice, and imagination of all involved.

Fallen performances continue Fridays and Saturdays April 10, 11, 17 and 18 at 8 p.m. and Sundays April 12 and 19 at 3 p.m. in the UAA Arts Building Harper Studio Theatre. A post-performance talk-back is scheduled for Sunday, April 5, immediately following the show.
