(South Milwaukee, WI) – South Milwaukee Performing Arts Center is proud to present CATAPULT: MAGIC SHADOWS on Friday, February 2 at 7:00 pm. Audiences may remember that Catapult catapulted to fame on Season 8 of America’s Got Talent.

Working behind a screen, the Catapult dancers stretch their bodies and your imaginations, telling stories with silhouettes transforming “magically” from one shape to another. You won’t believe your eyes as you watch these incredible dancers form magic shadows such as a mountain, an elephant, and a helicopter. You won’t be able to guess how they do it, and you won’t know what they will make next. Be surprised and delighted again and again.

Founded in 2009 by Adam Battlestein, Catapult rose to fame on Season 8 of America’s Got Talent. Animated by the dancers’ shadows, every cinematic scene in Magic Shadows is a kaleidoscope of colorful storytelling that will awe and astound you. You will never look at your own shadow the same way again!

CATAPULT is booked in cooperation with Down Stage Entertainment
