Its creators, Ian Carney and Corbin Popp, met as dancers in Billy Joel and Twyla Tharp's "Movin' Out" on Broadway, and soon the "Darwin" vision evolved, making use of electroluminescent wire, blackout settings and their own skill as hand and body puppeteers.

CORBiAN Visual Arts and Dance is a unique group of individuals, led by artistic directors Ian Carney and Corbin Popp, who are committed to bringing startling and engaging imagery to the stage. By utilizing illuminated wiring, puppetry, and a troupe well versed in dance and movement, they're able to bring their simple, but elegant sketches to life. Their clever production DARWIN played the Edison Theatre this past weekend (May 8, 2010), and provided a large and receptive audience with an eye-popping display of storytelling that's like nothing else you've ever seen.
