Tensions run high, spirits even higher, and nothing can stand in the way of this temperamental timbale of terrible tantrums. Watch out as Amber Sloan breaks into a berserk bop while trying to tear her dress to shreds. The perversely–masked artists of C. Eule Dance, tricky as they may be, can’t hide what’s really going on. Ailing sailing ships and distraught mermaids crash ashore when Zach Morris’s nautical ne’r do wells run aground of Tom Pearson’s leaping landlubbers. Kyle Abraham turns it all out as he flips out and performs a sly turn of character. Beating him to the punch is Mark Gindick from Happy Hour who wants to please you, tease you, and squeeze you. Rounding out this highly strung bunch is Suzi Shelton and Friends who tries to ease our woes with melodic peace offerings.

"whirling agitation... nature's tantrum"
