The Calling

"The Calling" is an immersive fire theater show produced by Flambeaux Fire. It is also an original musical and living art exhibition, using wearable fire sculptures as well as including steel and bronze fine art sculptures in the storyline. 

Styled as a large-scale spectacle show, "The Calling" is a magical quest for truth and freedom in a conflicted fantasy world that mirrors our own current reality. The story and production is a creative collaboration of those with hearts of fire, and for those who dare to live in dreams. It brings together an expanding cast of NYC's best artists that believe in dreaming and playing out fantasies and presenting themselves through archetypes.

The 'other-worldly' experience of the show is heightened by its location: the seemingly clandestine and cavernous Gowanus Ballroom in Brooklyn, NYC. A metal fabrication shop by day and performance and art exhibition space by night, it is an ideal industrial setting for our dark fairy tale, and a safe, mostly concrete location for fire art.

We hope to continue making our dreams a reality and our reality into our dreams. We are aiming for our next shows to take place in mid-July and min-November in Brooklyn. After that….we hope to take Manhattan on our journey as well.
