Acrobatic Performance Piece Traces Extends at Union Square Theatre

Traces, the acrobatic performance spectacular from Montreal based group Seven Fingers, has extended through January 1, 2012, at off-Broadway's Union Square Theatre. The limited engagement was originally set to conclude on October 9.

Traces is described as a theatrical experience in which the human body is pushed to its limits as a group of friends leave their mark in a run-down warehouse through acrobatics, music and dance. Fusing the traditions of circus with the energy of street performance, Traces is an explosive display of raw emotion and physicality in an intimate urban setting."

The production is directed and choreographed by Shana Carroll and Gypsy Snider and performed by Mason Ames, Valerie Benoit-Charbonneau, Mathieu Cloutier, Bradley Henderson, Phillipe Normand-Jenny, Xia Zhengqi, Florian Zumkehr, Heloise Bourgeois, Sen Lin and William Underwood.
