ROCKPORT — Experience the flow of dance, circus arts, acrobatics, story and song as Molly Gawler performs her one-woman show, Saturday, March 16, at 7 p.m., at the Rockport Opera House.

Gawler’s performance was created with original choreography in collaboration with musicians Elsie Gawler and Shepsi Eaton.

Molly Gawler is a dancer, musician and mom. She founded her own company in 2012, a collection of solo dance works with elements of acrobatics and stories through movement created with live music from the folk traditions of Maine.

As a youngster, Gawler studied ballet with Andrei Bossov in Pittsfield, and furthered her dance training in college with contemporary and modern at SUNY Purchase in New York. She danced with various choreographers in New York City such as Corbin Dances and Nøa Dance. After that, she toured the world with Pilobolus Dance Theater and starred in the lead role of the 'dog-girl' in the show Shadowland. While a part of Pilobolus she appeared on Oprah, the Golden Globes, the Royal Variety Show and the Academy Awards.

Her life led her to study circus at New England Center for Circus Arts in Brattleboro, Vermont where she learned Cyr Wheel, Aerial Arts and acrobatics. Gawler came full circle, back home to Maine where she performs, plays fiddle, sings and teaches movement of all types. One of her greatest joys is being a mother to six year old, Caspian, and two year old Mica residing in a wooden yurt built by her husband, Lao, in Orland.

Tickets to this event are available online at Rockportoperahouse.org and also at the door. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Show at 7 p.m.
