I had the great privilege of seeing the dress rehearsal of Sweet Can Habitat at Dance Mission Theater. During the run through I couldn’t believe that 6 professional athletes, and I say athletes because of the insane body strength these people have, put this show together with only a few rehearsal hours a week for 3 months.
There is tight rope walking, juggling, aerial tissue, single trapeze, a german wheel, moving mail boxes, and a lot of “clowning around”.
I can’t tell you how many times my eyes were glued to the performers because of the element of speed, fluidity and balance required.
I don’t want to give it away but, if you are looking for something different than Nutcracker and want to take the kids, this is a perfect show for uplifting your spirits.
