Photo Coverage: First Look at Columbus Moving Company's GLASS

Columbus Moving Company presents GLASS, a touching and dynamic tale of the fragility of life and the will to do more than simply survive. With inspiration from Justin Richards, The Glass Princess, and in collaboration with MaD Arts Group. GLASS, is the story of Princess Clio, a young girl who is poisoned and sleeps through decades of civilizations while only experiencing life through dreams in a glass stasis bed. Local composer Kevin Estes has created an original dramatic sound score written in four movements. The music includes a glass waterfall, tuned wine glasses, and an instrument made from 29 glass bottles created by Estes himself that will all be used live in performance. This unique collaboration brings movement and music together to create a stunning portrayal of youthful innocence, despair, and the will to survive the darkness of eternal rest.
