Tipping Point

Wed 20 Dec 2017

Tipping Point is the exhilarating new show by masters of aerial theatre Ockham’s Razor. Performed with the audience drawn in close, five performers transform 5 metre metal poles into a rich landscape of images, as the action veers from near catastrophe to mastery.

Poles are balanced, lashed, climbed, swung from and walked along. Poles become forests, crossroads and pendulums. As the performers cling to this teetering world, should they rail against the chaos, or let life tilt towards the tipping point?

Featuring a multi-layered soundscape composed by Adem Ilhan & Quinta (who have collaborated with the likes of Radiohead, Hot Chip and Bat For Lashes), Tipping Point will have you holding your breath and on the edge of your seat. If you love circus and spectacle, you won’t want to miss this one.

Winner of the Total Theatre & Jacksons Lane Award for Circus 2016
