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.
★★★★★ “This is the least showy and most breath-taking circus performance you will ever see. These three athletes challenge convention with kindness and humour, entertain without arrogance and present an ideal of non-judgemental sisterly support that will brighten up your day.” - The 730 Review
★★★★ ½ “Spectators watch the show unfold before them with mouths agape. There are gasps, and “oh my Gods”, and spontaneous rounds of applause from the audience. Casting Off is a multi-faceted gem of a spectacle.”
“Casting Off excels at subverting expectations.” Edinburgh Festivals Magazine★★★★ ½ “Casting Off has just about everything you could hope for. It is laugh-out-loud funny. It is motivational. It is intelligent. And, with mind-blowing trapeze stunts, it is testament to what the human body can do.” Edinburgh Festivals Magazine
★★★★ ½ "Shatters the stereotypes around people of varying ages, abilities, and agilities”
“the true meaning of what it's like to be fierce, formidable, and feisty as heck.” Weekend Notes
Presented by A Good Catch and Cluster Arts
Three generations recast their narrative. 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.
