Symphonie Fantastique (off-Broadway) News & Features
A one-of-a-kind experience, combining the magic of puppetry with the powerful suggestions of music, dance and abstract art. Symphonie Fantastque is an intimate show set to the five movements of Hector Berlioz's 19th century classical composition of the same name. The hour-long Symphonie is performed entirely in a specially constructed water tank. Unseen, puppeteers manipulate feathers, glitter, plastics, vinyl, mirrors, slides, dyes, blacklight, overhead projections, air bubbles, latex fishing lures to deliver a concert of forms, shapes and moving colors.
