BREVARD COUNTY • KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLORIDA – This holiday season, the term “lift-off” will take on a whole new meaning at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.

For the first time ever, the internationally acclaimed performance group Fighting Gravity will put on a nightly show** during the visitor complex’s annual Holidays in Space celebration.

The group will awe crowds with the illusions they perform that seem to defy the laws of physics.

Fighting Gravity’s black-light illusion dance performances gained notoriety in 2009, as third-place finalists on the popular NBC TV show, “America’s Got Talent.”

Since then the group, which originated as a fundraising idea started by students at Virginia Tech, has been featured on stages around the world, with acts such as Will.I.am and Jennifer Lopez.

“Fighting Gravity performances spark the imagination and inspire wonder, which is what we hope our guests experience with a visit to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex,” said Therrin Protze, chief operating officer, Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.

“It’s the perfect way to light up the holiday season at the visitor complex. We are always challenging ourselves to find new ways to create memorable experiences and this innovative entertainment will bring our holiday offerings to a whole new level.”
