Gravity & Other Myths
special performance for schools and educatorsTry, fail, try again—behind every great move is a grueling process. Here, eight acrobats reveal what it takes with spellbinding precision and joy.
The Australian circus troupe pulls back the curtain on their high-flying process in an ode to the countless hours needed to achieve great things. In this honest and ingenious new work, world-class acrobats investigate physical skill; how we obtain it, how we perfect it and how it can transform our lives. It's an invitation to watch them work and a love letter to our bodies and the amazing things they let us do every day.
Recommended for 3rd-8th grade students.
