Fringe Pick: CONSTANTS, A Story-Telling Performance Journey Along The Schuylkill River, August 24-September 4

Movement Brigade will revive its sold-out 2010 Fringe show CONSTANTS this year, performed Wednesday, August 24 through Sunday, September 4.
The show is “a performance journey in history along the Schuylkill River,” an interactive piece exploring how the Schuylkill has been a constant factor in the lives of Philadelphians since the inception of the city.
Audience members travel with performers on land and in canoes, witnessing first-hand stories from the river’s past. You’ll experience the Lenape People’s Story of the Four Crows, become immersed in the history of Philadelphia’s drinking water, meet a runaway slave traveling along the Underground Railroad, see the Shadfish’s story of renewal and more.
CONSTANTS brings life to hidden histories from the river’s past. Crafted with the fusion of dance, music, theater and sculpture, the performance is one not to be missed.
