    Dear Sir or Madam.

    We ask for your attention for an extraordinary, new performance.
    An absolute highlight for all events – business and private
    galas, fairs and presentations, with a link to the new 20th CENTURY FOX movie AMELIA.
    An elegant ballet, danced in mid air, that embodies man’s and woman’ s age–old desire to fly.

    The aerial dancer CRYSTALLE presents her new masterpiece „AMELIYA“
    Crystalle starts working on the performance already in 2006, long before
    the 20th CENTURY FOX movie AMELIA became reality.

    * * * CRYSTALLE-PERFORMING ARTS
    Three acts:
    Vertical Rope
    Wire Dance
    Adagio for Ameliya
      The performance is an homage to the legendary female
    pilot Amelia Earhart who in 1932, was the first woman                                  
    to fly single handed across the Atlantic.
    With this amazing feat, Amelia Earhart embodied                                      
    self-confidence, strength and an ability to plan down
    to the smallest detail combined with an incredible lust for life.                              
    She was, and still is, an inspiration for all women and  men who want to fly.
    This fascinating woman has also inspired CRYSTALLE                                    
    to take flight in a spell-bindingly different way.
    Working exclusively with the British choreographer                              
    Christina Comtesse a new concept and vocabulary of movement 
    has been developed, using a specially designed pilot seat built and developed 
    by the technical team of the Seattle Opera House (USA)
