A breathtaking fusion of circus arts and contemporary dance from down under. Explosive acrobatic encounters, lyrical duets and supple physical contortions visually drenched with layers of projections and set to a blend of Jacques Brel's songs, industrial sounds by Darrin Verhagin and DJ Shadow; this is stripped back circus of the heart.
“The
skill of the performers cannot be stressed enough. Supple, smooth, and
arousing, much like the French language, which accompanies it, moments
such as the beautiful trapeze duet and the violent ‘stuck-in-the-mud’
gymnastic solo will remain with viewers for a long time. Witnessing
Chelsea McGuffin lift a grown man into a standing position on her
shoulders is inspiring, and the subtle humour that occurs during
moments of broken expectations is refreshing.”

“At
the performance I saw the audience didn't immediately applaud. Not
because they weren't enthralled by the performance, but because they
didn't want it to end."
