Community Education Center (CEC) presents the 2nd of five artists in the 2009 New Edge Resident Artists Performance Series, featuring director, creator and choreographer Megan Mazarick in Avatard (formally Ursula). Avatard follows three gamers who find that while playing their game they have become digital designs of themselves, or avatars. Mazarick infuses human movement and video projection in order to portray the contrast between the transforming, alien-warrior bodies of the female characters with the 'natural' and disassociated bodies of the video game playing men. Performances will be held the weekend of April 24-26: Friday and Saturday, April 24-25 at 8pm, and Sunday, April 26, 3pm at the CEC Meeting House Theatre located at 3500 Lancaster Avenue in Powelton Village/University City. General admission is $12, $10 for students and seniors. For further information call 215-387-1911, and/or go to our website at www.cecarts.org.
