about
Initially trained as an actress at The School of Performing Arts in NYC, Kiebpoli integrated her acting and dancing skills with the rope adding a very unique aspect to her aerial work. She portrays clear emotions while working on the vertical plane, which enables the audience to dive into her created universe while she makes a myriad of exciting and dynamic shapes, drops and theatrics.
*Kiebpoli is a professional Aerialist, Equity Actress/Dancer, and founder of BLACk*ACROBAT; her performance production company. She has trained at The Circus Space in London and with Kevin O'Connor in NYC. Her aerial theatre performances have been at LaMama, etc., SLAM at STREB, The Tank, PS 122, The Brooklyn Lyceum, The Zipper Theatre, and 3-Legged Dog amongst others.
"blacK*acrobat, a beautiful woman clad in a silhouette of a slip enters the space and is immediately struck by a glimpse of her lover embodied in a rope. She mounts the rope and as she dances a narrative of suggestive romance the audience is wound into her story. At first she is lost in the world of the aerial dream but like all dreams it begins to slip away and she is left back on earth with the weight of the memory of love."
