Description

Take hundreds of sparklers, thousands of feet of sticky tape, a crane, fire, machinery, smoke and a full musical score and you have an experience that is as spectacular as it is beautiful. Before your eyes a spider-like creature forms out of the tape and high above the crowd a tiny fly gets caught in the spun sticky web. Will the little creature escape the clutches of the spider to fly free?
