Streb soars into the Eccles Center
Gravity-defying action group to give free community behind-the-scenes look
Dan Bischoff, Of the Record staff

"Streb s action specialists have been making audiences gasp at their high-flying sequences for more than 20 years.

New York City was a distant sparkling land of opportunity compared to Terry Dean Bartlett's small hometown of Cody, Wyoming.

But, after receiving a degree in dance at the University of Montana, he was determined to challenge the entertainment capital. "

From Valerie Gladstone in the Boston Globe:

Quote:

Flights of fancy
Elizabeth Streb, a self-described ‘action architect,’ has made a career of gravity-defying choreography

....
Streb brings “STREB vs. Gravity,” a series of spectacular acts including the thrilling “Revolution,” with the wheel, and the lyrical “Orbit,” to the Institute of Contemporary Art Thursday through Feb. 25. Accompanied by pop hits, with a set by Michael Casselli lit with red and blue lights and video projections of letters, numbers, photographs, and text serving as a constantly moving backdrop, the show dazzles in every way.

Choreographer and MacArthur fellow Elizabeth Streb was seeking that feeling of free-fall when she first started gliding off a 12-foot ladder and smacking down hard . . . onto a mat. ..."

Physics at bay
Elizabeth Streb versus gravity
By MARCIA B. SIEGEL
February 27, 2007 12:04:48 PM

"THE DANGER IS REAL: Not only their moves but their lives depend on precise coordination and teamwork.

Elizabeth Streb has changed the name of what she does again. The show of “extreme action” at the Institute of Contemporary Art last weekend was called “Streb vs. Gravity.” The ferociously physical choreography seems a little less slam-bam and a little more airborne than it used to, but an hour and a half with Streb still celebrates bodies locked in combat with the laws of the universe..."
