Moving Day

Everyone moves. A new house, a new job, a new partner... change is inevitable. It's how we react to that change that shapes who we become.

Join Emerald City Trapeze Arts for an evening of moving. Through stunning Aerial Arts and mind-blowing High Flying Trapeze, we will explore what moving means to each of us.

Consider A Move

The steady time of being unknown,
in solitude, without friends,
is not a steadiness that sustains.
I hear your voice waver on the phone:

Haven't talked to anyone for days.
I drive around. I sit in parking lots.
The voice zeroes through my ear, and waits.
What should I say?

There are ways to meet people you will want to love?
I know of none. You come out stronger
having gone through this? I no longer
believe that, if I once did.

Consider a move, a change, a job, a new place to live,
someplace you'd like to be. That's not it,
you say. Now time turns back. We almost touch.
Then what is? I ask. What is?
