AntiGravity trampolinist injured during performance

Scott Loeser hit his head on the trampoline during a production number at the conclusion of Act I. The curtain was dropped after the accident occurred.
"He hit his head and an ambulance brought him to Queen's (Medical Center)," said show promoter Tom Moffatt. "He was released from the hospital that night."
Vitaly Booza replaced Loeser for the concluding Sunday matinee, and also appeared in Act II Saturday, said Moffatt. The number involved several trampolinists who bounce to a platform at least one story high.
AntiGravity continues its Hawai'i tour with shows at 7:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center, but it was uncertain if Loeser would return to the cast or be replaced. A few additional AntiGravity performers were here for appearances in Saturday's Pro Bowl, said Moffatt.
