Born to Fly: Elizabeth Streb vs. Gravity is Catherine Gund’s acclaimed documentary exploring the life, work, and fearless creative vision of legendary action architect Elizabeth Streb. Through rare archival footage and intimate access to STREB Extreme Action, the film examines a practice that has continually challenged conventional ideas of movement, gravity, risk, and the limits of the human body.
Join us for a special, free film screening that serves as a lead-up to The Big Top Group’s Circus Soirée on August 22, where Elizabeth Streb will receive the organization’s Artistic Achievement Award in recognition of her groundbreaking contributions to contemporary performance, physical theatre, dance, and circus arts.
Following the film, guests are invited to stay for a talkback with “Circademic” Charles Batson.
