DESCRIPTION:Flyaway Productions' THE BALLAD OF POLLY ANN is a tribute to the legacy of 
 women who built the Bay Area's bridges from the 1970s to the present.  Jo 
 Kreiter, Director of Flyaway Productions, and labor historian Harvey 
 Schwartz interviewed six women - from pile drivers to crane operators - and 
 incorporated their stories into the dance and the musical score by Pamela 
 Z.  The dance itself is set on a bridge replica inspired by the suspension 
 system used on the Alfred Zampa Memorial Bridge. Flyaway's dancers use the 
 bridge's construction elements to exemplify the physical and emotional 
 risks characteristic of the relentless physical labor required to work on 
 the bridges.\n\nTHE BALLAD OF POLLY ANN is part of LaborFest 2009 and was 
 created with support from Tradeswomen, Inc., Pile Drivers Union Local 23, 
 Hathaway Dinwiddie, foundations, and individuals.\n\nThe performance runs 
 Tuesdays - Saturdays, July 14-25 @ 8pm. Details, tickets, and excerpts of 
 the oral stories are at flyawayproductions.com\n
