Show Description
In this dance show we rip through the cereal box of life looking for the prize at the bottom. Milking the nostalgia of our youth; we loop through the woes of adulthood because in the end…Trix are only for kids.

More Information
This show is a collaboration that brings contemporary dance, pantomime, and nostalgia to the Fringe stage. It is a reflective birds eye view of the unanticipated emotional roller coaster of post academia life. This story arc is carried on a vehicle of colorful cereal advertising, irony, and vigorous movement. We dance an ode to the wheaties eaters, a sonnet to the Bran lovers, and a ballad to those who wake up and try everyday. In the most SERIOUS of contemporary dance works, we will be asking the hard questions of: Who pissed in your cheerios this morning?
Note from the creator, Lily Conforti:
The idea for this show came from experiencing our own individual post grad identity crises. In our conversations, we began to reminisce on the simple pleasures of childhood, like solving the maze on the back of the cereal box and reaching for the prize at the bottom. The plot of our work is also driven by a diverse musical score that gives momentum to the peaks and valleys of our story. We crave to bring whimsy and vigor to the stage through dance that snap, crackles and pops to life with bright colors, eclectic music and boxes and boxes of cereal. This dance show really is one size fits all; it appeals to the theater nuts, the dance maniacs, and the cereal eaters; what more could you want!?
