Others live under the Arch, where they perform wizardry unknowingly. They roam the city among everyday people.  Sometimes they switch masks and morph, seeking ways to present gifts and survive the dangers of the city.But, the planet is trembling from the loss of one of these St. Louis superheroes, the Great Story Hunter. A gigantic ARCH transmitter broadcasts a message to the galaxy's edge, where peaceful yogis receive the message. The people have forgotten how to lay their own stories to rest. And so the discontent builds, blocking people's hearts. About 30 St. Louis artists will expose their alter egos and super POWERS at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m., Dec. 15 at the Contemporary Art Museum. "May These Changes Make Us Light – Winter Show Collaborative" is a multimedia performance that uses dance, music and sculpture to amuse the adventure within us. Narrating the story through live video-mixing, VJ Evil Che, Mike Pagano, will project onto a 10-foot-tall, inflatable plastic dome — and lead the audience through a tale that blends the real and fantastical."The show builds on the understanding that daily life is performance – we script each choice and motion," said Lyndsey Scott, St. Louis artist.  "The joy of the process blurs the veil between what appears to be and what is."MYTHICAL CHARACTERS PLAYED BY:The Fireflies — St. Louis' only acrobatic yoga troupe. The crowd-pleasing pairs stretch the limits of aerial poses. They are featured in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's article "Feels Like Flying" on Sept. 24. www.acroyogafireflies.com www.stltoday.com/stltoday/lifestyle/stories.nsf/healthfitness/story/53018225C1EBE2468625735D006959C1?OpenDocument Gravity Plays Favorites — a sassy, captivating acrobatic duo that performs powerful aerial routines using only a standing pole. Performing in TV programs and theatrical venues, the well-seasoned dancers travel nationally about twice a week.  www.myspace.com/gravityplaysfavoritesAmazonia Belly Dancing – an electrifying group that performs the ancient dance of the body's life force — the belly, while also incorporating innovative tools from modern dance and fire spinning.  www.myspace.com/amazoniabellydancingMUSIC: FIRE DOG — This local power trio serves up a playful attack of soul and surf, fresh and electric. The FIRE DOG anthem, "2004," is the show's theme, which can be heard at www.seefiredogroll.com. The group toured the Western United States last fall, playing over 30 shows in two months.  Celia's Yuletide Express — This is cheerful group of about 20 vocalists and sleighbell-ists, accompanied by a live rock-swing band. They spread "glad tidings of great joy" to all people, appearing at charity events and holiday parties in the bleak mid-winter. www.myspace.com/yuletideexpressA St. Louis quartet specializing in African and Middle Eastern drumming will provide the percussion and ambient sound.ADDED SURPRISES: Accomplished local artists Kelsey LaPoint, Lyndsey Scott, Sara Paulsen, Emi Hemeyer, Jerome Gaynor, Lezlie Silverstein and Holly Gallaher set the stage and fashioned the costumes in playful ways that make believing easy.We are a mesh of figures impossibly and perfectly formed –– exalting and exuding light as one.
