Aaron Rothermund dances on stilts in The Sky Dress/Cryptozoology Playground

On June 4th 2010 Cryptozoology Playground performed the first version of "The Sky Dress" at the Guelph Contemporary Dance Festival during the noon hour series. We had a great time.

About Clay & Paper Theatre:

Out amongst the community bake-ovens and lush gardens of Dufferin
Grove Park, Clay & Paper Theatre has been changing the world. Completely.
Irrevocably. Medieval mystery plays, Punch and Judy shows, African myths,
Indonesian shadow puppetry, Native Canadian masks, commedia dell’arte -
all these and more have influenced Clay & Paper Theatre. The company
is built on the accumulative experience of David Anderson - theatre activist,
producer of new Canadian work, and defender of public space since 1969. This is
theatre on the ground, for the groundlings, in the park and on the street. This
is theatre of exaggeration, of giant puppetry, of satire and wit gone awry.
This is a little theatre company asking big questions with humour and
irreverence.

This is Clay & Paper Theatre.
