ROCK
AND ROLL CIRCUS creates high-energy physical theatre
for thrill-starved audiences.
Rock 'n' Roll aims to shatter. It relentlessly pursues the
most powerful of theatrical expressions. It produces theatre
with a poetic reach Ç featuring moments of heightened
lyricism, danger, passions and excitement.
Since
it pioneered the art of physical theatre in 1986 Rock 'n'
Roll Circus has evolved into one of Australia's most progressive
and innovative theatre companies. Rock 'n' Roll Circus has
won both the Green Room and the Matilda Awards for its unique
productions.
The
culmination of high-end physical theatre and energetic emotional
journeys has catapulted Rock 'n' Roll into the international
spotlight. Rock 'n' Roll Circus has toured throughout Australia
at the Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra and Sydney International
Festivals. Worldwide, Rock 'n' Roll Circus have been invited
to perform in Edinburgh, Germany, Spain and Singapore.
Rock 'n' Roll Circus performances will be interspersed through
the evening's program and include:
|
Andrew
Bright and Rockie Stone: Duo acrobalance
Their ability to climb and balance on each other is astounding.
It is a choreographed routine which displays their strength,
trust and daring. Rockie stands balancing on Andrew's head then
shifts into a handstand held above his head. They use each other
to display skills that defy size and gravity. |

Davey
Sampford: Juggling & Manipulation
Davey begins with a simple three ball juggle. His manipulation
of the balls is astounding as he incorporates a number of contact
and ground-based tricks. More juggling balls appear till he
is juggling five balls above his head in a number of different
patterns that defy gravity. Davey then places a dagger in his
mouth and reveals two swords. Delicately placing these on the
tip of the dagger he spins the balanced swords above his head.
Picking up the juggling knives, he becomes a moving spectacle
of flashing steel and immense coordination. |
Chelsea
McGuffin: Hula Hoop
Chelsea starts with one hula hoop in her hand. It moves confidently
around her body before she kicks off into a highly choreographed
routine that climaxes in an amazing six hoop trick. A stunning
display of flexibility and dexterity. |
