Freefall is an exciting exploration of bizarre and everyday fears, human quirks and truths. Gravity and Other Myths use their extensive skills in circus and physical theatre to showcase the inner workings of seven young characters as they learn to engage with their fears.
Reviews from their 2009 preview season in Melbourne as part of the CircusWorks Program are certainly glowing.
“Time and time again we were enthralled…Impressive, clever and very entertaining” - Arts Hub
Fear is common to all people and the inherent risk-taking and trust forming nature of high level acrobatics is the perfect visual medium with which to explore these concepts. The artists will combine traditional circus disciplines including hula hoop, juggling, adagio, hoop diving and acrobatic pitching with contemporary movement and physical theatre to develop a dynamic and innovative performance style. Using interactive lighting effects and dynamic audio, the artists will create an engaging and atmospheric performance space.
"Bloody amazing" - Festival Freak
Through spoken word and the unique physicality of each character, Freefall will transcend the conventional concept of fear to show the deeper complexities and resulting everyday habits that fear evokes in us all defining how we act and who we are.
