SUMMARY:MOMIX: Alice at The Zeiterion
DESCRIPTION:MOMIX brings its latest production to the Zeiterion stage on Thursday\, Feb. 5\, at 7:30 p.m. Inspired by Alice in Wonderland\, the show blends illusion\, acrobatics\, magic\, and playful surprise in a style that is unmistakably MOMIX. \nThe story follows Alice as she tumbles down the rabbit hole and meets familiar characters\, including the Caterpillar\, the White Rabbit\, and the Queen of Hearts. Dancers stretch\, bend\, and transform using props\, ropes\, and one another. Bodies grow\, shrink\, and shift in ways that keep the eye guessing. \nVisuals are bold and inventive. Movement feels strange\, funny\, and sometimes otherworldly. Nothing appears quite as it seems\, and that sense of discovery drives the evening. \nTickets range from $29 to $59\, plus fees. Performance may not be appropriate for young children.
