AIRNESS

presented by PRINCIPIA COLLEGE

@ The DAVIS BLACK BOX THEATRE

“In music, as in everything, the disappearing moment of experience is the firmest reality.”

| Benjamin Boretz, American composer and theorist

 
 

A tight-knit pack of nerds tour the competitive air guitar circuit from bar to dingy bar across America. Along the way they meet Nina, new to the art form and harboring a secret. They introduce her to a subculture that drinks from the chalice of ROCK. Transcending the stupid, the mundane, the actual guitars, truth is revealed in a realm of loud, unbridled, face-melting self-actualization most can only dream of: the realm of airness.
