Off-Broadway Acrobatic Spectacle Traces Becomes an Open-Ended Engagement

Traces, the acrobatic spectacular from Montreal performance troupe Seven Fingers, is now an open-ended engagement. The production had originally planned to close on January 1, 2012 at off-Broadway's Union Square Theatre.

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.
