201675 minutes

The hit of the 2016 Philadelphia Fringe Festival. Smashing together the genre of space epic with the sweet strains of American folk music, Almanac's physical vocabulary swells to include break dance, static trapeze, and ever more innovative ensemble acrobatics, asking timeless questions about mortality.

Breathtaking physicality… haunting musical harmonies… top-notch design. This is really heady stuff; don’t miss it.Deb Miller, DC Metro Theater Arts
