Hula-Hoop Performers Coming To Manhattan Bridge

DUMBO, BROOKLYN – A group of multimedia performers is putting a new spin on the planetarium.

Big Sky Works is coming to the Manhattan Bridge Archway on Thursday at 6 p.m. The group will "create a planetarium and build a solar system with the audience using hula hoops and spinning carpets, together with visuals," organizers said.

Work by the group's founder, Tanya Gagner, has been featured in Los Angeles, London and Sydney.

The evening will also feature an exhibit by designer Cara Lee Sparry, who opened The Lighthouse kiosk underneath the Archway.

The performance is part of this summer's Live At The Archway series. There's a full list of shows at this link.
