Suspended in trees, surrounded by beauty and illuminated by the stars... This year's show, By the Light of a Different Moon is a show about the giving of light in a world separate from our own; where Moon Queens dictate, Wanderers emerge, the Veiled welcome strange beings, the Watch is on guard and the Peacekeepers bring everyone together. Set to a commissioned soundtrack played live by Dirty Elegance, experience an evening of aerial theater as life of another kind teaches us what it means to love, accept and find meaning from the light of a different moon.  As always, this production is packed full of traditional and invented aerial apparatus, athletic and technical dance movement and acrobatics. 

Live Music: Dirty Elegance playing a pre-show concert as well as a full live performance throughout the entire show. 

A-WOL's Art in the Dark annual performance is a fantastical, illuminated, full-length, evening production set in a unique and rare outdoor theater style setting.  Transforming a dirt plot into a performance spot, each show is packed with the flavor of the Northwest and a wonderful taste of the talent this area has to offer!   Come see why A-WOL grabbed the attention of OPB's "Oregon Art Beat" during the 2012 season! Last year's show sold out entirely - get your ticket early.

Art in the Dark is enjoyed by all ages.
