 Fred
Garbo Inflatable Theater Co. stars pneumatic wizard Fred Garbo and Brazilian
ballerina Daielma Santos. This exquisite duo has performed around the world,
transcending barriers of age and language in a seamless program that includes
physical comedy, dance, juggling, and most importantly, their own creative
inventions that INFLATE!
Fred
Garbo and Daielma Santos inhabit their enchanting world with tremendous aplomb
and skill. The concert begins when a ten-foot cylinder slithers onto the stage
and implodes. Before long, the entire audience is playing catch with gigantic
inflatable props. The big blow-up shapes dance, shimmer, balloon, deflate and
bounce in a rainbow of colors. Suddenly, a globule red cube takes on a life of
its own, rolling, gliding and tumbling in synch to the music, right up to the
edge of the stage. The audience gasps, and the big block teeters dramatically on
the brink, quaking and bulging and changing shape before it amazes the crowd
with its hilarious exit. Now the lovely ballerina dances a can-can,
 but her skirt
starts to grow longer and longer, becoming first a ball gown, then a balloon
that engulfs her and finally spirits her away. Audiences are mesmerized by the
artistic imagery and creative foolishness as Garbo and Santos perform
fast-paced, energetic, clever, and universally engaging theatrical pieces.
Fred
Garbo Inflatable Theater Co. has won the praise and affection of audiences
around the globe. In addition to appearances on international television and on
David Letterman’s Late Show, performance highlights include the Kennedy Center,
