Petit Mal

Tue 13 - Sat 17 Sep 2011

RACE HORSE COMPANY IN COLLABORATION WITH CIRCO AEREO

Australian Premiere

Finnish contemporary circus troupe, Race Horse Company, is bringing its groundbreaking show Petit Mal to town.

This action-packed performance includes everything from break-dancing and hip-hop, a Chinese pole, daring trampoline stunts and acrobatics like you have never seen before.

In a combination of village fools, wild physicality and black humour, Petit Mal will have audiences’ mouths wide open and eyes glued to the stage.

As this performance is being held in an outdoor venue please feel free to bring a cushion and/or blanket with you. Please also dress appropriately for the outdoor conditions.

“Finnish contemporary circus is never going to be the same after this! What we have seen is something truly excellent and extraordinary.” Hämeenlinna

‘Described as a contemporary circus, the performers fused break-dancing, hip-hop, Chinese pole, acrobatics and martial arts creating a visual feast for the eyes that left you open-mouthed in amazement.” Ashley Bolton, Daily Echo
