In one instant they are a mouse and then a full size elephant, a camel, a car with headlights, a house and not just a house but a house with a window and people inside the window.  You will never figure out how they do it and you won’t know what they will make next – you will be surprised again and again.  Audiences are delighted by the apparently effortless transformations and applaud over and over as more and more unbelievable images appear on the stage.  Not only is the show packed with hundreds of shape transformations but it is full of humor, emotion and engaging stories.  There are 8 fully realized stories that are told in a completely new way – using only music and shadows.  There is no language barrier – adults and children from any place on earth will follow and love these stories. There are also several short shadow dance videos which play between the live dances. These are brief moments of poetry or humor which perfectly cleanse the palate and prepare the audience for their next shadow journey. The show also includes one very special shadow dance using cutting edge technology to create Color Shadows!  No other shadow company has this technology. The dance brings the dancers in front of the screen and creates a stunning spectacle of color which is unforgettable.  Audiences leave this show dazed and happy and they will never look at their own shadow the same way again!
