Assembly Main Hall
Gravity and other myths once again astound us with a breath-taking display of skill, trust, and sheer human power.…
Eight phenomenal performers whisk us through a mesmerising hour of fluid physicality and acrobatics – stacking themselves sky high, leaping onto each others shoulders and literally swinging each other across the stage. Every moment crackles with risk and trust, yet what shines just as brightly is their joy in performing and the playful camaraderie between them all. A giant timer looms at the back of the stage, morphing from countdown clock to scoreboard, subtly threading tension and urgency into the narrative. All of the incredible acrobatics, strength and balancing are interspersed with comedic moments that enhance the playfulness of the show and between the cast members. Our mini-reviewer loved a perfectly executed warm up in a break dancing style including some iconic moves from the recent Olympics!..
Making these incredible feats seem effortless, this is an exhilarating, imaginative show, which we encourage everyone to go to, young and old alike…as soon as it finished, our mini-reviewer wanted to watch it all over again – one hour simply isn’t enough !
My mini reviewer said : “It was absolutely amazing – I like when everyone is standing on each others shoulders, and when they look like they’re falling, but they don’t – that’s pretty cool..”
