AntiGravity Tour Adds On Extra NYC Performance, 7/2

By popular demand, an additional performance has just been added to the New York engagement of AntiGravity: The 2007 Tour at Manhattan Center's Hammerstein Ballroom (311 West 34th Street). Originally announced as a six-performance run from Wednesday, June 27 through Sunday, July 1, 2007, a seventh performance is now scheduled for Monday, July 2 at 8 p.m.

AntiGravity: The 2007 Tour is the company's fourth full-length original production, after 2001's AntiGravity's Crash Test Dummies, which sold out a limited run at the New Victory Theatre Theatre on 42nd Street, 2002's AntiGravity: An American Band which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival and ran through the Olympics, and the following year's The AntiGravity Party, which sold out its engagement at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles. The group recent repelled eight performers from the top of Rockefeller Center for the premiere of Spider-Man 3 earlier this month.

Press notes state, "For more than 15 years, AntiGravity has astounded audiences around the world with its high-energy theatrics and astonishing aerial performances. Its troupe of international champion athletes defy more than the laws of physics - merging athletics and aesthetics into a breathtaking and shocking live-performance art form," continuing, "AntiGravity: The 2007 Tour is an edgy, action-packed display of heart-pounding physicality and audacious beauty in AntiGravity's unique style, melding aerial acrobatics, extreme sports and urban dance with technology and popular culture. This full-scale show promises to be a highly visceral experience and a wildly fun night of awe-inspiring, death-defying levity set to the biggest names in pop music."

AntiGravity: The 2007 Tour is conceived, directed and choreographed by founder Christopher Harrison (in collaboration with Team AntiGravity), with a creative team including costume design by Shelly Bomb, lighting design by Herrick Goldman, rigging design by AntiGravity Aerials Inc. and sound design by John Smith.
