    Do Jump! presents a blend of aerial dance, breathtaking acrobatics, humor, live music and traditional dramatic narrative in ¡Entusiasmo! to tell the incredible and inspiring true story of Gaviotas, a Colombian village founded in 1971. An exemplar of sustainable culture, Gaviotas exists in peace in the midst of a war-torn country, one far more troubled and dangerous than our own. The performance gradually turns a barren stage into a paradise filled with wonder and delight. It features traditional Colombian music by Los Llaneros and live original music by Joan Szymko, all performed in Spanish. Robin Lane adapted ¡Entusiasmo! from the book Gaviotas: A Village to Reinvent the World by Alan Weisman. Lane says, "this is not only a story of hope, it is the story of creativity itself. The process that began in Gaviotas more than 30 years ago, and is still evolving today, is the closest thing . . . to my understanding of the process of making art."
