Subject: A TEMPEST IN A BIG-TOP: PanTwilight Circus on tour.


The Pan-Twilight Circus 's 1997 show PROSPERO'S MAGIC ISLAND, or A TEMPEST IN A BIG TOP  will be on tour from June 13-Aug 2.  We will perform over 56 shows in 7 locations in Rhode Island and Massachusetts during the 8 week period.  This will be our longest and most ambitious tour to date.

        The show is a circus adaptation of Shakespeare's play THE TEMPEST , with Prospero serving as the Ringmaster, Trinculo and Stephano playing clowns, an 8 1/2 foot tall Caliban, an aerial Ariel and much more. The production is a combination of theatre, dance, and the circus arts, such
as trapeze, acrobatics, juggling and magic, with an original score of instrumental and vocal music performed by a live band (including hurdy-gurdy, xylophone, mandolin, oboe, and violin, to name a few of the instruments)
        Artists involved in the show include composer Steve Jobe, choreographer  Sally Mayo, puppet maker Mark Kohler, director Bob Colonna, set designer Jeremy Woodward, tech director Shawn Gamache,  and costumer Marilyn Salvatore.  The cast is as follows:
Algernon D'Ammassa -- Prospero
Anne Gardiner-- Miranda
Tom Sgouros-- Ferdinand
Chelsea Bacon-- Ariel  (aerialist)
Ivy Brunelle -- voice of Ariel
Jen Cohen -- Sprite (aerialist)
Jens Larsen -- Stephano (hand-balancer)
Nick Goldsmith- Trinculo ( juggler)
Adam Gertsacov-- Caliban  (puppeteer/clown)
