Lightwire Theater
The Ugly Duckling & The Tortoise and the Hare
In an age when television, computers and video games reign supreme, the folks at Light Wire Theater (in conjunction with Corbian Visual Arts and Dance) use cutting edge technology and moving sculpture to bring new life to a pair of classic tales, Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Ugly Duckling” and Aesop’s fable, “The Tortoise and The Hare.”
Lined with electroluminescent wire, these well-known characters illuminate the darkened stage as they tell the beloved stories of perseverance and resilience, imparting life lessons to their young audience.
