What:
"Everlasting Slumber" is a fairy tale told through aerial theatre with puppetry, projected animation and a musical score by two time Dora award winner Waylen Miki.
"Grannies in the Park" is a stage adaptation of a street theatre show. The grannies are an acrobatic duo who stumble upon their roots in the park and relive their glory days in the circus for an un-expecting audience.
"Benched" is a film about a stranger who helps a girl to re-learn to play, told through guerrilla aerial choreography set entirely on a park bench.
"The Chaos Project" is a trilogy of works that explore the themes of predictability and chaos. The evening will showcase the first two pieces; "Childhood" which examines the themes while on an all girls private school playground using trapeze bars and "Corporate Chaos" that explores the main themes through the lens of the competitive 9-5 corporate world using 4 aerial ropes.
