A curious Jane Eyre with aerial dancing (!) is performed today, November 29, in Santa Barbara, CA:Jane Air
Adapted by Charles Donelan
presented by the AP English Literature class at Laguna Blanca School
A partnership between the Santa Barbara Centre for Aerial Dance and Laguna Blanca's English and performing arts departments.
10:15 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 29, in the Spaulding Auditorium, 4125 Paloma Drive
Donelan wrote the adaptation of the novel for the stage over the summer and began meeting with [Ninette] Paloma, who choreographed the piece, in August. Performing Arts Theatre instructor Dana Caldwell is the theatrical director.
The project is connecting senior students in AP English literature with Caldwell's Middle School theater arts students in an experience that merges the Upper School English curriculum with aerial dance. (Tara Broucqsault in NoozHawk)
