    “We always wanted to create a ‘real’ raging tornado on stage and have live performers fight in the vortex! The challenge was finding a company with the sophistication and expertise to do something never done before.  We found a perfect partner in Aerodium.  Millions have been (and are being) “wowed” by what they created!”
