SUMMARY:Casting Off
DESCRIPTION:Intergenerational circus with lots to say: the personal is political\, fury is fun and the acrobatics downright dangerous – especially when life gets in the way. Casting off stereotypes\, these dynamic Australian women tumble\, talk\, fly\, and balance precariously. A disarming\, hilarious show about living on the edge and talking about it; and how it’s easier done than said. Circus that makes you laugh and cry simultaneously! Relaxed\, personal and fantastically inappropriate. \nWith Opening Act: Acromada \nAcromada is a multi-modality circus performance troupe based in the Kootenays that blends dance\, partner acrobatics and aerial arts to create stories of the human experience. Our members have diverse skill sets that allow us to blend a unique variety of movement into our creations. \n
