The aerial dancer CRYSTALLE presents her new masterpiece „AMELIYA“ Crystalle starts working on the performance already in 2006, long before the 20th CENTURY FOX movie AMELIA became reality. Adagio for Ameliya The performance is an homage to the legendary female pilot Amelia Earhart who in 1932, was the first woman to fly single handed across the Atlantic. With this amazing feat, Amelia Earhart embodied self-confidence, strength and an ability to plan down to the smallest detail combined with an incredible lust for life. She was, and still is, an inspiration for all women and men who want to fly. This fascinating woman has also inspired CRYSTALLE to take flight in a spell-bindingly different way. Working exclusively with the British choreographer Christina Comtesse a new concept and vocabulary of movement has been developed, using a specially designed pilot seat built and developed by the technical team of the Seattle Opera House (USA) Please ask for pictures and more informations crystalle@mac.com www.crystalle.eu
