The Cabiri Troupe

Whether swooping through the air atop the trapeze or wrapped in aerial silks, the performers at The Cabiri Troupe retell the myths of cultures that have passed into antiquity through high-flying performance as theatrical emissaries for the Anunnaki Project, a Seattle non-profit organization. The performers portray ancient myths through high-flying performance, dance classes, and written works. Primary instructors received aerial teacher training at the New England Center for Circus Arts and boast ten-plus years of performance experience. They share their multidisciplinary methodology with students through such classes as aerial arts, which sends participants aloft on aerial silks and hoops for spinning and swirling.
