Traces - T387754775Four Men. One Woman. Five skateboards. One piano. Ten basketballs. Five hoops. One armchair. Seven fingers! Add it all up and multiply by a wow factor somewhere off the Richter scale for the funkiest, quirkiest slice of acrobatic dance theatre on the planet. Traces is a gravity-defying mix of circus, physical theatre and music from French-Canadian troupe The 7 Fingers (all former Cirque du Soleil members). They tumble. They leap. They dance. They swagger. They dive through hoops, walk up walls, hurtle down poles, spin in rings. All delivered with electrifying precision, breathtaking skill and a youthful urban energy that breathes fresh new life into contemporary circus. Wistful, dynamic and sexy - this is stripped back, livewire entertainment for the 21st century! | |
