    FrenetiCore’s Artist in Residence ChinaCat Dance presents Glow,  Friday and Saturday, June 1 & 2 at 8:00pm at Frenetic Theater, 5102 Navigation Blvd. Houston, TX 77011.

    Enter the enchanted realm of ChinaCat Dance with their evening length concert, Glow. This concert takes the audience on an adventure of light, both futuristic and primal. The ChinaCats begin in a magical setting of ethereal light created through blacklight and L.E.D. props. In this world the audience will meet a variety of glowing characters, from delicate swans to hooded alien creatures.

    After intermission, the audience will transfer to an outside space where they will enter the primal world of firelight. Here ChinaCat Dance explores the ancient light of fire by creating dance incorporating torches, fans, and fire fingers. ChinaCat also welcomes three guest fire performers, Juniper Jairala and RJ Rock from Houston, and Sterling Marie Harris from Denver, Colorado, who will amaze the audience with their manipulation of fire poi, staff, and hula-hoop.
